FAQs
What level of protection does this knee protector offer?
The EVOC Knee Protector LS Flex Enduro 2025 offers Level 2 protection, providing a high standard of safety for impacts.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Measure your thigh and calf circumference according to the sizing guide and use both the Power Flaps and the adjustable strap to secure the protector firmly but comfortably.
Can I wash these protectors?
Yes, they can be hand washed with mild detergent in cool water. Avoid machine washing, bleaching, or tumble drying.
Are these protectors suitable for all types of cycling?
They are primarily designed for mountain biking, enduro, and downhill riding due to their robust protection. For casual or road cycling, lighter protection might be sufficient.
What does the 'LS' in the name stand for?
LS typically stands for 'Long Shin' in EVOC's product naming, indicating extended coverage down the shin area.
How does the 'Power Flaps' system work?
Power Flaps are straps that attach directly to the protector pad, allowing you to secure it firmly to your shin for a reliable fit that prevents shifting.
What material is used for the padding?
The protector uses Airprene material for cushioning and comfort, combined with abrasion-resistant fabric on the exterior and additional side padding for enhanced safety.
Troubleshooting
Protector slips down during ride
Ensure the Power Flaps are securely fastened to the shin area and the adjustable strap is tightened appropriately. Check that the silicone finish on the sleeve end is clean and dry for maximum grip.
Protector feels too tight or restrictive
Verify you have selected the correct size. If it's still tight, try loosening the adjustable strap slightly. Ensure the protector is positioned correctly on the knee.
Discomfort around the kneecap
Confirm the doughnut-shaped neoprene ring is correctly positioned around your kneecap. Adjust the fit using the straps if necessary.
Reduced ventilation effectiveness
Ensure the ventilation channels are not blocked by clothing or debris. Clean the protector regularly as per care instructions.
