FAQs
What level of protection do these elbow guards offer?
The Oneal PRO III Elbow Guards meet the EN 1621-1 Level 1 Protection Standard, offering certified protection against impacts.
Are these guards suitable for all types of cycling?
Yes, they are designed for adult cyclists across various disciplines, including mountain biking, downhill, and enduro, where impact protection is beneficial.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Oneal. It's recommended to measure your arm circumference at the specified points and select the size that offers a snug but not constricting fit. The adjustable straps also allow for fine-tuning.
Can I wear these guards over or under my jersey?
These guards are typically worn over a base layer and under a jersey if space permits, or over the jersey depending on the fit and rider preference. The primary goal is secure positioning and protection.
How often should I clean my elbow guards?
It's recommended to clean them after rides, especially if they become dirty or sweaty, to maintain hygiene and material integrity.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the retailer or Oneal's official website for specific warranty information as it can vary by region and purchase date.
Do the guards get hot during long rides?
The guards feature multiple ventilation openings and a ventilated hexagonal surface designed to improve airflow and minimize heat buildup. However, performance can vary based on ambient temperature and rider exertion.
Troubleshooting
Elbow guard slips down during ride
Ensure all adjustable straps are tightened securely. Check that the correct size has been selected and the guard is positioned correctly over the elbow and upper arm.
Guard feels too tight or restricts movement
Loosen the adjustable straps slightly. Ensure the guard is the correct size; if it's still too restrictive, consider a larger size.
Elbow guard causes skin irritation
Clean the inside of the guard regularly. Ensure the straps are not overtightened. If irritation persists, consider wearing a thin base layer under the guard.
Ventilation seems insufficient
Ensure the ventilation openings are not blocked by clothing. Clean any debris from the vents. While designed for airflow, extreme conditions may still lead to some heat buildup.
