I just found those 'Leatt' neck braces on Taobao. They sell between 500rmb and some over 5000rmb.
The cheap ones have to be fake and I don't know if I'll be getting a real one if I pay 2600 odd rmb for one on Taobao.

I did a little looking around on their website and I'm pretty impressed. I'm just not sure whether or not I'm really going to need one of those if I'm not really doing any professional racing. I know, someone is probably saying "You can never be too safe" but I'm also considering the time when I'm so clogged up with gear that I can't concentrate properly and then get into an accident.

On the other hand, the road-bike neck brace doesn't look heavy or restricting and it could save my neck (pun intended).

P.s. There are a couple selling on Taobao for 3000 and 3500.
P.s.s. I think I'll ask my dad to get me one from the states.
You should be able to get the Leatt there are other companies that do the neck brace as well from a American motorcycle online shop cheaper.
