About this harness

The Prime is the accessible entry into Ride Engine's hardshell world: a fiberglass shell with the same locked-down philosophy as the Elite at a friendlier price. It keeps the low-profile fit and the spreader ecosystem the brand is known for — the harness that converts softshell sceptics.
