FAQs

How do I choose the correct size?

To choose the correct size, measure the circumference of your thigh (approximately 10-15cm above the knee) and your calf (approximately 10-15cm below the knee). Compare these measurements with the manufacturer's sizing chart. A snug fit is crucial for the guards to stay in place.

Can I wear these knee guards under my riding pants?

Yes, the slim, low-profile design of the 100 Percent Ridecamp Knee Guards makes them suitable for wearing comfortably under most riding pants without adding excessive bulk.

Are these knee guards washable?

Yes, they are hand washable. We recommend hand washing in cold water with a mild detergent and then air drying them. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

What level of protection do these guards offer?

These knee guards offer essential protection against scrapes and minor impacts, thanks to their shock-absorbing foam padding. They are ideal for general trail, enduro, and all-mountain riding, but are not designed for the most extreme downhill impacts where heavier-duty protection might be required.

Do these knee guards stay in place well?

Yes, the slip-on design combined with elastic cuffs is engineered to provide a secure and snug fit, helping the guards stay in place even during aggressive riding and dynamic movements.

Troubleshooting

Knee guards are slipping down during rides.

Ensure you have the correct size; if they are too large, they may slip. Make sure the elastic cuffs are clean and not stretched out. Re-adjust them to sit snugly above and below the knee before starting your ride.

Discomfort or chafing behind the knee.

Check if the guards are positioned correctly. The breathable construction should minimize chafing. If discomfort persists, ensure no clothing is bunched up underneath and consider wearing thin, moisture-wicking base layers.

Guards feel too hot or sweaty.

While designed with breathable materials, intense exertion or very hot conditions can still lead to some heat buildup. Ensure the perforated neoprene and mesh panels are clean and unobstructed. Consider taking short breaks to allow airflow if possible.

Padding feels less effective over time.

Regularly inspect the impact-resistant foam for compression or damage. Over time, padding can degrade. If the padding appears flattened or compromised, it might be time to replace the guards for optimal protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The 100 Percent Ridecamp Knee Guards feature a slip-on design. To wear them, simply slide them up your leg until the padded section comfortably covers your knee. Ensure the elastic cuffs sit snugly above and below your knee to prevent slippage during riding. It's often easiest to put them on before your riding shoes.

  • Gender: Unisex design, suitable for all riders.
  • Riding Style: Ideal for trail, enduro, and all-mountain cycling.
  • Fit: Available in various sizes (please refer to sizing chart for specific measurements).

Care Instructions

Proper care will prolong the life and effectiveness of your knee guards.

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
  2. Drying: Air dry only. Do not tumble dry, iron, or expose to direct heat, as this can damage the neoprene and padding materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
  4. Inspection: Regularly inspect for any signs of wear, tears, or damage to the padding or stitching. Replace if significant damage is found to ensure continued protection.
