While you're enjoying the flow of your ride, all is well, with exhilaration and thrills aplenty. However, a clipped bar, washed-out tyre or ambition outstripping skill can soon have you facing a sharp fall. And here, the Teratec Plus Knee Guards will prove their worth. The 100% philosophy of the right materials in the right places is demonstrated by the use of SmartShock® protection. Used across the knee, this flexible material allows ample mobility when riding, but should you suffer a fall, it will soak up and dissipate the harmful impacts on your knee. Compared to the standard Teratec, this Plus version also has extra lateral protection. Rather than be bloodied and bruised after a crash, you should soon be back on your bike and shredding. Elsewhere, the focus is on comfort, flexibility and moisture management. The fully vented chassis and mesh zone to the back allow your skin to breathe, preventing excess sweat from accumulating. The pre-curved shape and mobility flex joint lets you pedal easily and get low and aggressive as demanding terrain focuses your attention. Lastly, 100% apply a grippy silicone elastic webbing inside, keeping your pads locked firmly and comfortably in place.
The ultra-light Ridecamp Elbow Guards are a great pick for fast-paced XC laps, down-country escapades and light trail duties. If you do find yourself heading unexpectedly towards the dirt, the lightly padded elbow cover softens the blow of impacts. The outer cover is also abrasion-resistant, resisting tears and rips should you slide during higher-speed falls. Thanks to their slip-on design and pre-curved chassis you can easily adopt attacking positions and move and react quickly and easily to any terrain changes. The highly perforated materials and rear mesh zones also prevent sweat from causing you discomfort. And in order to prevent annoying slippage, 100% have added a tacky inner silicone webbing to grip and hold them firmly in place.
