BIA GREY Protective motorcycle base layer / body

What is CE AAA certification, and how is it tested?

Under the European safety standards, motorcycle garments are assessed against the EN17092-2:2020 standard. Those that meet the criteria are then given a rating based on the performance, with Level AAA being reserved for garments that offer the highest level of protection. 

The testing process includes: 

• Abrasion resistance testing to simulate sliding across asphalt 
• Tear strength tests to see how much force it takes to rip the fabric 
• Pressure tests on the seams 

Like all Pando Moto protective wear, the Bia Grey underwent CE testing; it was rated Level AAA. 

Can I wear the Bia Grey under a jacket or as a standalone layer?

You can wear the Bia Grey under a jacket or as a standalone layer; the choice is yours. 

How do I choose the right size if I fall between measurements?

If you fall between measurements, you could size up, or for some professional advice, reach out to the Pando Moto Style Advisors, who can give you more detailed information about the product and sizing. 

How should I wash and care for the Balistex® fabric and armor inserts?

To start, remove the D3O® Ghost™ CE Level 1 armor and the Quatroflex CE Level 2 if you have it. These can be wiped down with a damp cloth and left to air dry.

Pando Moto's Balistex base layers can be hand-washed or turned inside out and machine-washed on a gentle cycle. During the cleaning process, use cold or lukewarm water and a mild detergent; avoid using harsh chemicals like bleach or fabric softener. Once clean, leave the body suit to air dry at room temperature in a shaded space.  

Will this base layer keep me warm in cold weather, or is it designed for summer use?

By itself, this Pando Moto women's body suit is perfect for summer riding because it's breathable and heat-conducting. When things start to cool down, though, the low-profile design means it can easily be worn under a jacket to keep you warm.
