The 661 Evo Compression LS Jacket is designed for mountain bikers and gravity riders seeking elite-level safety without sacrificing mobility. This highly technical jacket utilizes D3O impact technology to provide a flexible fit that hardens instantly during a crash, ensuring comprehensive protection for the back, shoulders, and elbows. While the jacket offers industry-leading safety and integration features, users should note that the extensive padding may feel slightly heavier and warmer during mid-summer rides compared to minimalist protective vests.

Yes, the CE 1621:2 back protection is removable, allowing you to customize the level of protection or easily clean the fabric chassis.
You should remove the armor inserts before cleaning. The jacket fabric can be hand-washed, but machine washing is not recommended for the inserts.
PADLOCK is 661's proprietary connection system that allows you to connect protective gear together to ensure everything stays in place during impacts.
Yes, the low-profile nature of D3O padding allows the jacket to be worn comfortably under most standard mountain biking jerseys.
This specific model focuses on back, shoulder, and elbow coverage. Please check your specific sub-model to confirm included coverage areas.
The jacket should fit snugly like a second skin to ensure the D3O pads stay in place. Consult the 661 sizing chart based on your chest and waist measurements.
Adjust the elbow straps to ensure the armor is properly centered on your joints rather than pulling the fabric too tight.
Ensure the bladder is inserted before putting the jacket on, or have a partner assist in feeding the tube through the designated routing ports.
Check that the PADLOCK connection points are securely engaged with your shorts or other compatible gear.
To ensure optimal performance, start by verifying that the shoulder and back pads are correctly seated within their mesh pockets. Utilize the elbow straps to tension the fit around your forearms, ensuring the pads do not rotate. The jacket is designed to be form-fitting; if you feel restricted, check that the neck opening is sitting flush against your collarbone.
