Description
The AlpineStars Vector Tech Knee Pads provide a tremendous amount of protection for the rowdiest terrain. These lightweight, flexible knee pads are comfortable, well-fitting and well worth considering if you are after a knee pad with bulk protection that you can still pedal in.Who's this item for: DH, Enduro and aggressive Trail riders who are looking for a high level of protection.
Protection Style: The protection starts with an ergonomically designed, soft shell PU guard that is form fitting to your leg while riding. This soft shell PU guard is constructed from durable aramidic fibre. Covering the knee cap area is a semi-rigid thermoplastic shell for abrasion and exceptional impact protection.
Materials: The main body of the knee pad is constructed from breathable laminated rip-stop and PE foam. The back uses stretch poly mesh panels for better stability of the knee pad while riding, but is open behind the knee to avoid bunching and chafing. A silicone print is used on the inner sleeve to prevent the guard from being displaced while riding (or crashing).
Closure or Slip-on: Slip the knee pads on or use the flexible side zipper for a quick and effortless fit. There are also hook and loop top and mid-height straps to ensure a precise fit.
Length of knee pad: The Vector Tech Knee Pads cover from above the knee to the top 1/3rd of the shin.
Protection level: High. These knee pads are CE certified to EN 1621_1 : 2012 LEVEL 1
Removable protective inserts for washing: No.
Pros: High level of protection that can still be pedalled in.
Cons: Limited size range.
