Safety and approval

The protector carries the following certification, as stated by the manufacturer: EN 1621-1. Always check the label of the product you receive for the standard and level actually indicated.

Fit and sizes

The product is available in sizes S, L. To choose your size compare your body measurements with the manufacturer’s chart: a protector should fit snugly without squeezing and stay in place while you move, because if it slips it no longer covers the area it was designed for; if you are between two sizes, contact us before buying and we will help you pick the most suitable one.

Who it is for

These elbow guards are made for trail and enduro mountain biking, for riders who want soft, adjustable protection to keep on for the whole ride.

Care and maintenance

After use clean the rigid parts with a damp cloth and neutral soap and wash the fabric parts following the label, preferably by hand and without fabric softener. Let it air dry away from direct heat and check straps, velcro and padding from time to time. Replace the protector after a serious impact or if it shows cracks or deformation.

Why choose it

A protector has to live with movement: stay light and ventilated during active phases and absorb the impact when needed. Shell stiffness, padding, adjustments and fabrics aim at a good balance of protection, comfort and freedom of movement.

Protectors work best as part of a complete kit: combine them with a helmet, gloves and other protection suited to the kind of terrain you ride. No protector removes the risk of injury, but it can help reduce the consequences of a fall.

If you need help choosing the size or deciding whether the model suits your riding, our team is happy to answer your questions.

A practical tip: try the protector together with the jersey and helmet you will wear, simulating your riding or pedalling position, to check that it does not chafe or shift.
