G-Form Pro Rugged 2 Elbow Guards
Best flexible protection for mountain bikers seeking all day comfort.
These guards strike the rare balance between heavy-duty protection and barely-there comfort. The impact-hardening material stays flexible while you ride, only stiffening when you actually need it. You sacrifice the bulk of traditional hardshell armor, but you gain the freedom of movement necessary for technical trails and long days in the saddle.
