Fly Racing Barricade Knee Guards
Best lightweight protection for riders seeking all day comfort.
These guards are for riders who hate the feeling of bulky armor but refuse to ride unprotected. The memory foam construction offers legitimate impact safety that stays put under your pants, though you sacrifice the heavy-duty, hard-shell shielding found in more aggressive, downhill-focused gear.
