The challenge to making an great pair of knee guards is to build them in such an way that they are comfortable to pedal in. After all, they can’t protect you if they’re around your ankles. The Summit knee guards provide CE-certified protection that you can comfortably ride in all day, thanks to an innovative low-profile D3O pad. We used lightweight 4-way stretch CORDURA fabric on the impact zones with breathable mesh back panels for comfort. These guards are the perfect choice for trail riders who want an bit more protection, but don’t want to slow down.
