FAQs

What type of cycling are these knee guards best suited for?

The 100 Percent Ridecamp Knee Guards are ideal for trail riding, enduro, and all-mountain cycling. They offer a balance of protection and comfort suitable for varied terrains and riding intensities.

Can I wear these knee guards under my riding pants?

Yes, their slim, low-profile design makes them comfortable to wear under most riding pants or shorts without adding significant bulk.

How do I choose the correct size for these knee guards?

Info needed: To ensure a secure and comfortable fit, you typically need to measure the circumference of your thigh (usually 10-15cm above the kneecap) and calf (around the fullest part). Compare these measurements to the manufacturer's specific sizing chart, which should be available on the product page or packaging.

Are these knee guards designed for heavy impacts?

No, these guards provide impact-resistant foam protection against scrapes and minor impacts. For heavy-duty downhill riding or extreme conditions, you might consider guards with hardshell protection.

How should I clean my Ridecamp Knee Guards?

It is recommended to hand wash them in cold water with a mild soap, then rinse thoroughly and air dry. Avoid machine washing, harsh chemicals, or direct heat to preserve the materials.

What makes these comfortable for all-day riding?

Their comfort comes from the slim, low-profile design, lightweight materials, and breathable perforated neoprene and mesh panels which reduce heat buildup and allow for unrestricted movement.

Troubleshooting

Knee guards slip down during riding.

Ensure you have the correct size. If they are too loose, they may slip. Make sure the elastic cuffs are fully extended and positioned correctly on your thigh and calf. A proper fit should feel snug but not overly tight.

Experiencing discomfort or chafing.

Check for any folds or bunching of the fabric when putting them on. Ensure they are worn over a smooth base layer or directly on skin if preferred, making sure the fit is snug but not constricting. Adjust placement slightly until comfortable.

Knees feel too hot or sweaty.

While the guards feature breathable construction, intense activity can still lead to heat buildup. Ensure your riding apparel is also breathable. Consider taking short breaks to allow airflow, and ensure guards are clean as dirt buildup can reduce breathability.

Padding feels stiff or restrictive.

New padding may feel slightly stiff initially. Wear them for a few shorter rides to allow the foam to break in and conform to your knee shape. The material is designed to flex with your movement over time.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and comfortable for extended wear.
  • Excellent breathability minimizes heat buildup.
  • Secure fit prevents slipping during active riding.
  • Provides reliable protection against minor impacts and abrasions.
  • Versatile for various types of mountain biking.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for minor impacts and abrasions; not intended for heavy-duty protection in extreme downhill scenarios.
  • Slip-on style means less adjustability on the fly compared to guards with straps.
  • Info needed: Sizing must be precise for optimal no-slip fit.

Setup: To wear your 100 Percent Ridecamp Knee Guards, simply slide them onto your legs. Ensure the padded area is centered over your kneecap and the elastic cuffs are snug against your thigh and calf. The slip-on design provides a seamless fit, eliminating the need for buckles or straps.

Compatibility: These knee guards are designed for adult riders of all genders, making them a versatile choice. They are perfectly suited for various mountain biking styles, including trail riding, enduro, and all-mountain adventures. Their low-profile design also allows them to be comfortably worn under riding pants or shorts.

Care: To maintain the longevity and performance of your knee guards, it's recommended to hand wash them in cold water with mild soap. Avoid using harsh detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the materials. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to air dry completely away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the impact-resistant padding and fabric integrity. Regular cleaning after sweaty rides will prevent odor buildup and maintain breathability.
