100% Fortis Elbow Guards

While they are engineered for the rigors of downhill riding, their pre-curved shape and breathable neoprene construction make them comfortable enough for aggressive trail riding. However, if you prioritize pedaling comfort over maximum impact protection, you might find them slightly bulky for long, all-day XC rides.

Yes, they are designed with tacky silicone elastic webbing and adjustable hook-and-loop closures on both the bicep and forearm. This dual-retention system is specifically engineered to prevent the pads from sliding down during technical descents or when you're working up a sweat.

These guards are CE EN 1621-1:2012 Level 1 certified. This means they provide a reliable balance of impact absorption and flexibility, making them ideal for aggressive riding where you need protection without sacrificing too much mobility.

Because they feature a perforated neoprene base and injection-molded plastic, the best approach is to hand wash them in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can degrade the silicone grip and the integrity of the hook-and-loop closures.

They provide extended coverage that protects both the elbow and a significant portion of the forearm. The design is intended to shield you from trail debris and impacts that often occur on the lower arm during a crash.
