FAQs

Are these elbow guards suitable for downhill racing?

These elbow guards are designed for pedal-friendly protection and are best suited for trail riding, enduro, and less aggressive downhill use. For extreme downhill racing, more robust, hard-shell protection might be recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Measure the circumference of your forearm and elbow area according to the product's sizing chart. The sleeve should fit snugly but comfortably, with the silicone grip staying in place without excessive pressure.

Can the D3O inserts be washed?

The D3O inserts themselves are not typically washed. The micro-lycra sleeve can be hand-washed after removing the inserts. Ensure the inserts are clean and dry before reinserting them.

How often should I replace the elbow sleeves?

The lifespan depends on usage and care. Inspect the sleeves and inserts regularly for signs of wear, tears, or damage. If the D3O inserts lose their protective integrity or the fabric is compromised, it's time for a replacement.

Are these CE Certified?

Yes, the D3O elbow inserts used in these sleeves are CE Certified, meeting European safety standards for impact protection.

What age group are these designed for?

These are specifically designed for the youth age group, offering protection tailored for younger riders.

Troubleshooting

Elbow sleeves slipping down during activity

Ensure the silicone grip band is clean and dry. Re-position the sleeves, making sure the grip band sits flat against the skin. If slipping persists, check if the size is appropriate; a size too large may not stay up.

Discomfort or chafing from the silicone grip

Try wearing a thin base layer under the elbow sleeves. Ensure the sleeves are not too tight. If irritation continues, consider an alternative protection method.

D3O inserts feel stiff or awkward

D3O inserts are designed to be flexible during normal movement and stiffen upon impact. Wear them for a short period to allow them to conform to your elbow's shape. Ensure they are correctly oriented within the sleeve.

Elbow sleeves not drying properly

Ensure the D3O inserts are completely removed before washing. Air dry the sleeves and inserts separately in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat or sunlight.

Pros and Cons

  • Durable D3O inserts offer reliable impact protection
  • Breathable materials ensure comfort during long rides
  • Secure silicone grip prevents slipping
  • Easy to wash due to removable inserts
  • Ideal for young riders new to protective gear

Cons

  • May offer less protection than full hard-shell guards
  • Designed primarily for elbow protection, not full arm coverage
  • Sizing may vary, requiring careful measurement

  • Not intended for extreme downhill or high-impact crashes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These elbow sleeves are designed for immediate use. Simply slide them onto your forearms, ensuring the D3O inserts are correctly positioned over the elbow joint. The silicone grip at the top should rest comfortably against the skin to prevent migration.

Compatibility: The Fox Racing Youth Enduro Elbow Sleeve is compatible with most youth cycling apparel. It is designed to fit comfortably under or over jerseys. The D3O inserts are proprietary to this product.

Care: To clean the elbow sleeves, first remove the D3O inserts. Hand wash the sleeve fabric with mild soap and cool water. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach. Allow the fabric to air dry completely before reinserting the protectors. Do not machine wash or tumble dry the sleeves or inserts.
