You wouldn't head out for downhill day without tossing on your helmet so why skip the body armor' With the Ride 100% Fortis Knee Pads you can shred with a little extra peace of mind thanks to their pre-curved chassis and fortified injection-molded plastic shields that take the brunt of impacts in the event of a crash. To keep things comfortable while you ride the designers at 100% craft the Fortis Knee Pads with perforated neoprene that lets your skin breathe and breathable webbing at the back for a bit of ventilation. At the knee you'll find an elastic flex joint that maintains compression during pedaling supporting your muscles when you're pushing up long climbs. To secure the pads in place you'll find both silicone grippers at the top and bottom and stretchy hook-and-loop closures that lock your fit in place.
