I see a mix. I've seen cloaks, helmets, Weapons and Horses.
I have not seen any Chest pieces, or boots/gloves.

Totally different experience for me in the Beta:
Chest, shoulder, and mounts quite frequently
this last save the first 2 prizes I got were body armor

In e1.0.7 patch it was stated that rewards were changed, reward prize was capped and they should be random:
"Tournament maximum bet amount is reduced to 150 from 300 and odds for the player are now reducing after each tournament win. Max odds are increased to 3 from 2.* Tournament prizes pool now includes all items (weapons, armour, and horses only) which have a value between 250-2000 (average 500)."
Before beta I attended tournaments very often and had different prizes, but got the same ones often too.
Maybe you just weren't too lucky.
Also I never had one body armor as a reward, so not exactly all items are included. But maybe a body armor, which costs 2000 or less is just trash, that's why it was excluded from prizes.

It should be noted that in the Beta right now, it caps at a 4-1 payout, and if there are heavy hitters still floating in the 2nd round, I’ve gotten that 4-1 payout for two rounds in a row
Yeah I was getting worried that something was wrong with my game. I literally only get cheap helmets.

After the latest patches in beta, I started a new campaign (didn't test the old saves), and now bets are even more profitable, than at the start of EA and prizes are much different, I even got a body armor useful for the start of the game. It's the first time I got a body armor from a tournament and I participated near 100 times 
Wait you get swords too dam i feel even worse now lol
I've recorded the rewards I've encoutered during a new playthrough
over 32 tournaments the rewards where:
- Helmets: 18 (56,25%)
- Body Armors: 3 (9,38%)
- Capes: 2 (6,25%)
- 1H Swords: 2 (6,25%)
- 1H Maces: 2 (6,25%)
- Polearms: 1 (3,13%)
- 1H Axes: 1 (3,13%)
- 2H Axes: 1 (3,13%)
- Horses: 1 (3,13%)
as of now I've been only in Empire, Aserai and Vlandia towns, I don't know if the culture of the towns can affect the rewards (maybe a bit), for the record I've counted the tournaments per culture:
- Empire: 17 (53,13%)
- Vlandia: 6 (18,75%)
- Aserai: 9 (28,13%)
I had gotten multiple helmets from all of the 3 cultures, here is the number of helmets per culture:
- Empire: 10 (58,82%)
- Vlandia: 5 (83,33%)
- Aserai: 3 (33,33%)
And here is the full list in chronological order

Yeah, I don't bother with tournaments anymore. In an early update I got a sword called "The Ambassador" as a reward for my first win. Awesome. But since, tournaments are so not fun/rewarding I just don't bother with that part of the game anymore.
So Devs, please hear me out. Please make tournaments more rewarding by implementing:
1. Better rewards - this is probably obvious but the best tourneys I have player were ones for things like special horses, named weapons, etc. I would like to see a. named items return, b. more rare mounts, and c. genuinely unique items become available at tourneys, e.g. a crafted sword with a unique look/stats. I also think the items won should be powerful, not just things you can get for relatively cheap on the market.
2. More difficulty - I've been using an exploit to win tourneys (especially the sword and shield ones in Imperial towns) where I circle my enemy and spam the right-side, horizontal swing attack. For some reason enemies seem hesitant to attack back, so I am free to aim swings towards their heads until they're down. It's fun to win, but it's not as fun to be able to cheat your way through so easily. The reason I advocate for a difficult increase is, I think it'd make the whole experience more rewarding. The first tourney I won (prior to finding the exploit), my heart was pounding and I called my partner to tell her (lol). It was amazing. I felt I had earned it.
I'm just asking y'all to give other players that experience by making the tourneys feel like a challenge, and rewarding them like they really earned something. That's my idea of fun.

Pretty much, but everything is such low tier anyways.

i think they take a random item out of the market at a capped, and considering the prices of equipment, extremely narrow range of value, 250-2000. my guess is there is just more helmets than other things at those prices. you would also likely get more variety in the larger cities that have more items to pull from. hopefully this is just a placeholder system.
