Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the vest for your first ride, adjust the straps to ensure a snug, anatomical fit; the pads should sit securely over your clavicles and ribs without pinching. The shoulder and back protectors can be removed via internal access points if you prefer a lighter setup for casual trail riding. To care for the garment, remove all armor inserts before machine washing the mesh vest on a gentle cycle. The HumpBack bladder should be rinsed thoroughly with water and dried completely after every use to prevent mold or bacterial growth. Ensure that all pads are re-seated correctly into their labeled internal pockets before re-assembling for your next ride.
