FAQs
Are these suitable for downhill racing?
While these are high-performance protectors, they are optimized for trail and enduro riding. For dedicated high-speed downhill, you may prefer a more robust hard-shell guard.
How do I determine my size?
Measure the circumference of your thigh approximately 6 inches above the center of your kneecap and compare it to the Troy Lee Designs size chart.
Can these be machine washed?
Hand washing is highly recommended to preserve the shape and elasticity of the cuffs and the longevity of the D3O insert.
Is the D3O insert removable?
Yes, the inserts can be removed to facilitate thorough cleaning of the sleeve.
Will these fit under slim-fit riding pants?
The low-profile design is specifically engineered to fit under most modern technical mountain bike pants without creating bulk.
Troubleshooting
Pads sliding down during the ride
Verify that the upper cuff is positioned high enough on your thigh; consider sizing down if your measurements fall between two sizes.
Feeling restricted during pedaling
Ensure the D3O pad is correctly aligned with the knee joint; sometimes adjusting the vertical position by a few millimeters can significantly improve articulation.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent impact protection via D3O technology
- Highly flexible and pedal-friendly design
- Secure fit provided by technical cuff system
- Durable materials capable of withstanding trail debris
Cons
- May feel warm during mid-summer riding
- Requires proper sizing for maximum effectiveness
- Lycra construction can snag on sharp foliage
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure you have selected the correct size (XS/S, M/L, or XL/2XL) to guarantee the D3O insert sits directly over your kneecap.
Care Instructions:
- Hand wash the guards in cold water with mild soap after muddy rides to maintain the integrity of the Lycra and fabric.
- Always remove the D3O insert if the design allows for it, or ensure the entire unit is air-dried completely before storage.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach, as these can degrade the nylon fibers and elasticity of the cuffs.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
