Endura MT500 Knee Pad

Yes. While they are built for aggressive downhill riding, the internal material remains flexible while you pedal. The hard shell is designed to move with your knee, though they are bulkier than lightweight trail pads.

The MT500 uses a secure hook-and-loop strap system that wraps firmly around the leg. This ensures the pad stays positioned correctly over the knee joint, even during high-intensity descents.

These offer significantly higher protection than standard soft-shell pads. The combination of a custom-molded hard shell and impact-reactive D3O technology provides both immediate deflection against sharp rocks and shock absorption for high-speed impacts.

Yes, they meet EN 1621/1 and EN 17092-6 standards. These certifications confirm the pads have been rigorously tested for impact attenuation and coverage for mountain biking use.

They do. The design includes extended side padding specifically engineered to protect against lateral blows and impacts to the side of the knee.

They are designed with breathability in mind, but because they are high-protection hard-shell pads, they will naturally run warmer than minimalist trail gear. They are best suited for riders who prioritize safety over maximum airflow.
