With a name like Sweet Protection, it's no surprise that Sweet's holding down the fort when it comes to body armor, and its Elbow Pads are no different. While they may seem a bit on the light side at first glance, they feature multi-impact shock absorbing properties thanks to SAS-TEC 3D oadding, while keeping all day comfort a priority. The pads are built with a breathable elastic fabric that wicks away sweat on the inside, while holding up against abrasion on the outer level to extend durability. THe SAS-TEC pads are removable from the sleeve so you can wash things after a toasty DH day, and keep your impact-absorbing pieces in ideal shape. For comfort on the bike the pads are built with an articulated fit that is pre-bent at the elbow for your riding position, and topped with a sticky neoprene gripper on the top that helps lock your fit in place.
