Features

• Features a Plasma Knee Protector embedded into a highly ventilated semi-rigid frame construction for superior impact protection, while the integrated Dual Gear System (DGS) promotes the natural articulation of the knee
• Key Features
• Constructed from a USDA Biobased viscoelastic material, which is molded into a structure that is pliable in all directions while maintaining the ability to dissipate impact energy
• Dual density co-injected frame for a supportive structure with unrivaled comfort and adaptability: Engineered with a scooped lower extension made from a soft polymeric blend to avoid any pressure points associated with a hard edge from occurring as a result of the boot pushing against the protector
• The same scooped design is also applied to the upper extension, and this prevents the protector digging into the skin and causing discomfort while riding
