PROTECTIVE — MOTORCYCLISTS
EN 17092-2:2020 · AAA The garment shell: abrasion, seam and tear tests. Class AAA is the top tier — but it says nothing about the armor inside.
EN 1621-1:2012 · Level 1 The armor in the pockets — tested separately. A AAA jacket can legally ship with Level 1 armor. This is the trap.
ECE 22.06 · SHARP ★★★★★ Certification is the floor; ratings show the spread. Two certified helmets can score 2 and 5 stars.

Why this exists

An Australian crash-injury study found roughly 30% of motorcycle jackets, pants and gloves failed through material damage in real crashes [1] — gear standards have tightened since, but independent gear ratings still exist only regionally. The UK rates helmets (SHARP). Australia rates clothing (MotoCAP). For everyone else, the only information is the label — and most riders were never shown how to read it.

LabRated puts the published lab data in one place: 580 helmet ratings, every CE gear code decoded, US recalls, and 8 plain-language guides. Sources on every page, dates on every dataset, and nothing for sale. How we compile it →
