X Vest? Riding with weight?
I have heard of the X vest which is a weighted vest, I was thinking of making my own to get the same effect.

I was thinking 15-20 pounds extra would be what I would want will this make a difference to practice with weight and then remove it for races?
I suppose I would have to have my suspension settings for my two weights though.

Is there any cons to this and will it help in my on bike fitness. I wiegh 113-115 and ride a 125.

Re: X Vest? Riding with weight?
I have not tested the X-vest on a MX bike but I would be carefull with weighted vests when riding. None of the top pros use them. Proper training with the vest does have positive benefits with strength and muscle endurance. Be smart.
