FAQs

How do I determine the right size for my G-Form Pro-X3 Knee Guards?

Refer to the G-Form sizing chart image. Measure the circumference of your thigh and calf at the specified points and compare these measurements to the chart to find the corresponding size.

Are the SmartFlex™ pads truly waterproof?

Yes, the SmartFlex™ pads are fully waterproof, which allows for machine washing without compromising their protective capabilities.

Can I wear these under my regular cycling pants?

Yes, the Pro-X3 Knee Guards are designed with a low-profile, slim fit, making them suitable for wearing comfortably under most cycling pants or shorts.

What is the primary difference between SmartFlex™ and traditional padding?

Traditional padding often relies on foam density that remains constant. SmartFlex™ technology is unique because it stays soft and flexible during movement and only hardens upon impact, offering a balance of comfort and protection.

How long will the protective qualities of the pads last?

With proper care and use within recommended activities, the SmartFlex™ technology is designed for long-term durability. Avoid excessive heat or harsh chemicals which can degrade the material.

Are these guards suitable for a beginner cyclist?

Yes, the Pro-X3 line is designed for riders of all levels, including beginners, providing essential impact protection with comfortable flexibility.

What specific safety standards do these guards meet?

The G-Form Pro-X3 Knee Guards meet CE EN 14120:2003+A1 and CE 1621 impact protection standards.

Troubleshooting

Knee guards slipping down during activity

Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the sizing chart. Check that the grippers at the top and bottom of the sleeves are clean and free of debris. If the issue persists, the compression fabric may have lost elasticity over time.

Discomfort from compression sleeves

Verify you have the correct size. If the sleeves are too tight, they can cause discomfort. Try wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow your legs to adjust.

Reduced flexibility of pads after washing

Ensure you are following the care instructions: use cold water on a gentle cycle and air dry. Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, or high heat drying, which can degrade the SmartFlex™ material.

Pads feel too stiff initially

The SmartFlex™ pads are designed to be soft and flexible at room temperature. They will stiffen upon impact. Wear them for a few minutes during activity; body heat and movement should ensure they remain flexible until an impact occurs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides flexible comfort that hardens on impact.
  • Moisture-wicking material enhances rider comfort.
  • Secure fit with grippers prevents slippage.
  • Lightweight and low-profile design for freedom of movement.
  • Easy to clean (machine washable).
  • Meets recognized safety certifications.

Cons

  • Fit is crucial; incorrect sizing may affect performance.
  • May not offer the same level of high-impact protection as bulkier, hard-shell guards.
  • Compression sleeve design might be restrictive for some users.
  • Long-term durability of the compression fabric in extreme conditions could be a concern.
  • Limited adjustability once the correct size is chosen.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To begin using your G-Form Pro-X3 Knee Guards, ensure you select the correct size by referring to the provided sizing chart image. The guards are designed to be worn as compression sleeves; simply slide them onto your legs, ensuring the SmartFlex™ pads are centered over your knees.

Compatibility: These knee guards are designed for adult riders and are compatible with most cycling shorts and pants. They are suitable for various cycling disciplines including All Mountain, Trail, and Cross Country. They are not intended for highly specialized activities requiring extreme impact protection like downhill racing with large jumps.

Care: To clean your Pro-X3 Knee Guards, you can machine wash them on a cold, gentle cycle. It is recommended to air dry them to maintain the integrity of the materials and the SmartFlex™ technology. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Ensure the hook-and-loop fasteners (if any, though not explicitly mentioned for this model) are closed before washing.
