Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum effectiveness, position the shin pad so the protective shield covers the length of your tibia, aligning the internal padding directly over the shin bone. Fasten the hook and loop straps snugly but avoid overtightening, which may restrict circulation. For maintenance, hand wash the pads in cold water using mild soap after particularly muddy rides. Avoid using harsh chemicals or industrial detergents, as these can degrade the nylon chassis. Always allow the pads to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the foam and elastic materials.
