Chromag Rift Knee Pad

Because they use Rheon Labs energy-absorbing material, the pads remain flexible and soft while you pedal. They are designed specifically to avoid the bulky, restrictive feeling of traditional downhill armor, making them comfortable for all-day rides.

Yes, they are engineered for technical trails. While they prioritize pedaling efficiency and mobility, the material instantly firms up upon impact to provide reliable protection when you need it most.

The Rift pads feature a low-profile construction that emphasizes breathability. While no knee pad is completely immune to heat, the lightweight design is specifically built to prevent overheating during intense activity.

Chromag designed the Rift with a secure fit in mind. The low-profile shape is intended to contour to your leg, which helps keep the armor positioned correctly throughout demanding rides without needing constant adjustment.

Rheon Labs material is non-Newtonian, meaning it stays pliable and soft while you are moving normally on the bike. When an impact occurs, the molecular structure instantly stiffens to absorb and dissipate the energy before returning to a flexible state.
