G-Form EJ Knee Pad Black, XL

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I’ve been wearing the EJ Knee Pads on trail days and at the bike park—they’re super lightweight, and I forget they’re even on until I take a spill. The SmartFlex tech really works—I’ve taken a few hits and came out feeling fine. Plus, I can just toss them in the wash after a muddy ride."" When we’re riding hard—whether it’s flowing singletrack or gnarly downhill lines—we need gear that moves with us and doesn’t hold us back. That’s where the G-Form EJ Knee Pad comes in. Built with G-Form’s SmartFlex technology, these pads stay soft and flexible while pedaling and instantly harden on impact to shield against crashes or rogue rocks. The breathable fabric and ergonomic fit keep things cool and snug even on hot days, while the low-profile design slides easily under riding pants or shorts. They’re machine washable, so even after a muddy trail day or a sweaty climb, they’re ready to roll again. Lightweight, protective, and barely noticeable until you need them—that’s the kind of armor we trust."
