belt
they reduce the cumulative beating your guts and lower back take over many years of riding, your kidneys,liver,and everything else is shaking around in there all day and it will have an effect over the years, one of my longtime riding pals had to quit riding at 45 yrs old cause his guts would just get really sore from shaking around, never wore a kidney belt ever and now regrets being so hard headed about it.....they also provide some protection from getting jabbed by a stick, I use the "backthing"(think that's the name) from ruoutside
