Description
These Knee Guards are for hard-charging XC and Trail riders that want a little bit of extra protection to guard against abrasions without constricting movement or sacrificing comfort. The light Butterfly mesh sleeve provides a breathable secure fit and a thin stretch foam pad will help to keep the skin on your knees if you have a fall.
This pad is NOT rated for impacts. It is recommended for abrasion resistance protection only.
Who’s this item for: XC and Trail riders that are sick of skinning their knees and would like an extra layer of protection that won’t affect their pedalling performance.
Protection Style: A thin stretch foam pad provides extra protection against abrasions but won’t do much to protect against impacts.
Materials: Butterfly mesh sleeve. abrasion-resistant foam knee/upper shin cover. silicone gripper on upper and silicone patch on the shin.
Closure or Slip-on: The Charge is a light slip-on style knee pad that also provides some upper shin protection.
Length of knee pad: The exact length isn’t stated but they will extend up under most shorts without leaving a gap and will extend midway down the shin.
Protection level: Abrasion resistance only. These pads are not rated for impact protection.
Removable protective inserts for washing: No. the foam pads are not removable.
Pros: Light and comfortable so you won’t have to fuss with them when you’re riding. Cool enough for warm weather but will also provide some warmth on those cold days.
Cons: Hardly any impact protection. These are essentially a knee warmer with some abrasion-resistant qualities.
