ok my Tech-1r came in today looks great, I would say the sizes run a size small. I have a 44 1/4 chest so I ordered a 56. It fits snug but just right for me. This is the first jacket I have with the speed hump and it really seems to be in the way as others have said it seems too high on the jacket. Can't tuck like I can with my others. Flows good air , be sure and throw away the junk back protector and chest protector that come with the jacket. Spend the money for the better stuff a jacket this high end the good protectors should be stock.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I got these in red and black today. They look better in person than they do in the pictures, size is dead on. I wore them for a couple of rides today, they don't flow as much air as I thought they would but they aren't super hot either. I do wish the strap was ajustable seem a little loose at 1st but I can understand that if it was tighter it could be a problem.

These are very nice gloves they run a bit small, so be ready to order one size bigger than what you size at. They flow a good amount of air for hot days. They look great !

head shape?
Want to buy Bell RS-1. My head at widest points: circumference = 60cm. Over the top, between the ears (laughter) = 27 cm. Front to back = 32 cm. My old RF800 XL was probably too big when purchased, now, way too loose. Free G-MAX medium fits very well. According to Bell chart, my head size borders on L/XL. Revzilla video on Bell helmets suggests going down one size from suggested size. So, probably, I have a medium-large head; it's shape, however, eludes me. Advice? Other matter: one of your customers (happy) reports easily breakable face shield lock lever. Other site reviews report same. Are these aberrant reports? Thanks for reading this!!
I was in about your same size range and went with the large, I have been very happy with the helmet and would suggest getting the visor that darkens on it's own won't be sorry.

what size would you recommend?
im a 5'11, 165lbs, athletic 22 year old. im tryin to figure out a size that would fit me nicely but also give some room for growth. I would go and try on jackets but im currently deployed in Afghanistan and would like to come home to brand new riding gear. What would you suggest the size i should go with?
The big thing you need to check is your chest size. I am 5"9 and 200 athletic build with a 44 1/2 chest I fit into a 56 but would have no chance in getting into a 54. Length on the 56 is just right for me but you being 5 11 it may not. Your chest size will be what will make the size choice for you. Be aware the speed hump is high on these you will need to remove it and cut out the top area so you can tuck more without issue. The foam for this can easily be removed and put back in. Good luck and stay safe it's a very nice jacket.

Good morning, I have small hands that measure (according to the chart) 3.5 inches knuckle to knuckle under the palm. I have small fingers and in the past the fingers seem to long. Will this glove stretch as it is leather? There is nothing worse
than the fingers being to long. As usual your customer service is fantastic and I love my Sand jacket from Revit.
