FAQs

Are these pads suitable for downhill racing?

No, these are designed for trail and all-mountain riding. They lack the extensive coverage needed for high-speed downhill gravity sports.

Can I wash the D3O inserts?

Yes, the D3O Ghost inserts are machine washable, though it is recommended to wash the sleeves separately to prolong the life of the elastic.

What is the Padlock system?

Padlock is a 661-exclusive connection system that allows you to link your pads to compatible garments, preventing them from shifting during a crash.

Are these pads unisex?

Yes, the Recon V2 pads are designed with an ergonomic fit suitable for all genders.

How do I know if the pads are CE rated?

The integrated D3O Ghost inserts are CE 1621-1 rated, ensuring they meet professional standards for impact absorption.

Troubleshooting

Pads sliding down during rides

Ensure the silicone grippers are placed directly against clean, dry skin. Remove any moisturizer or sweat from the area before putting them on.

Difficulty putting the pads on

Ensure you are pulling the pads from the elastic cuff rather than the protective insert. Check that you have the correct size for your arm circumference.

Unpleasant odor after frequent use

Remove the D3O inserts and wash the fabric sleeves in a mesh laundry bag. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting the pads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Extremely lightweight and low-profile design
Highly flexible D3O material does not restrict arm movement
Excellent ventilation for warm weather riding
Secure fit prevents the pads from sliding down
Easy to clean due to machine washable materials

Cons

Minimal protection compared to hard-shell pads
Not suitable for high-speed downhill racing or extreme gravity sports
No side-impact padding coverage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure proper performance, slide the pads onto your arm so the D3O insert is centered directly over the point of your elbow. The silicone grippers should sit firmly against your skin for the best hold. These pads are compatible with the 661 Padlock system; if you are using a Padlock-equipped jersey, attach the connectors to minimize movement further. For care, always remove the D3O Ghost inserts before washing. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Air dry the sleeve away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the elastic fabric.
