Leatt limb protection range with Armourgel

PRO GuIDe
Leatt has expanded its range of protective gear with these premium AirFlex limb protectors , incorporating Armourgel – described as “ an energy-absorbing solution that stiffens upon impact ”. Designed for “ comfortable , high performance knee and elbow protection and world-class CE Level 1 certified impact protection , Armourgel is flexible in its natural state , but when it stiffens upon impact it absorbs energy to offer protection in critical protection points . “ Silicone printed , cupped knee or elbow grip and a pre-curved 3D design deliver added comfort , with the overall fit and function eliminating the need for Velcro straps - these pads do not slip , not even on long rides . Using a fabric mix of MoistureCool and AirMesh for the sleeves ’ construction , sweat is wicked and odour controlled , with the perforations in the Armourgel padding increasing ventilation ”. Leatt is offering a range of three AirFlex pads - a knee guard ( 250g ), a Pro version with additional side protection panels ( 300g ), and the AirFlex elbow guards ( 240g ).
