Product Information

Full details

The Troy Lee Designs Raid Knee Guard is designed for aggressive trail and enduro riders who require high-level impact protection without sacrificing mobility. Built with D3O impact technology and breathable materials, these guards offer CE-certified safety for long days in the saddle. While they provide exceptional security for technical terrain, riders may find them slightly bulkier than minimalist cross-country sleeves.

FAQs

Are these knee guards machine washable?

Hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity of the D3O insert and the elasticity of the straps. Air dry completely before use.

Can I wear these under my riding pants?

Yes, their low-profile design allows them to be worn comfortably under most technical riding pants.

What does CE Level 1 certification mean?

It means the gear has been tested and certified to provide a specific level of impact protection suitable for mountain biking impacts, meeting European safety standards.

How do I choose the right size?

Measure the circumference of your thigh approximately 6 inches above the center of your kneecap and consult the TLD size chart.

Will the D3O pad wear out over time?

D3O is durable and retains its protective properties through repeated impacts, provided it is not punctured or exposed to extreme heat.

Troubleshooting

Guard slips down during riding

Ensure the silicone gripper is in direct contact with your skin rather than over clothing. If the issue persists, check if the Velcro strap is tightened sufficiently.

Material feels irritating behind the knee

Ensure the guard is positioned correctly and that the seam is not twisted. Adjusting the compression band can often alleviate pressure points.

D3O pad feels stiff

D3O is temperature-sensitive. Simply wear the guards for a few minutes; your body heat will allow the material to become supple and conform to your knee shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-impact D3O protection
  • Excellent ventilation for all-day riding
  • Secure fit that stays in place during crashes
  • Unrestricted movement for efficient pedaling
  • Durable construction materials

Cons

  • Bulkier profile than lightweight trail sleeves
  • Requires proper sizing for maximum comfort
  • More warmth retention compared to open-back designs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, slide the guard up so the protective cup is centered precisely over your kneecap. Tighten the Velcro strap until snug, but ensure it does not restrict circulation. These guards are compatible with most standard cycling shorts and pants. For care, it is recommended to hand wash the guards in cold water with mild soap after muddy rides. Always air dry away from direct heat sources, as high temperatures can degrade the D3O material. Use the included mesh-lined bag to protect the fabric from abrasion during transport inside a gear bag.
