ION K_Lite_R Knee Pads
Description
The brand new K_Lite R is based on ION’s lightweight and highly reduced K_Lite. Enhanced climate comfort and improved freedom of movement were the focus of attention during R&D in collaboration with Enduro World Champion Richie Rude: by using a very breathable neoprene called Super Perforator Neoprene the new yet still lightweight knee-pads score highly with reduced heat accumulation underneath the sleeve. As a means of reducing resistance to the pedal movements from the protection pad itself, the K_Lite R is much more flexible: instead of using SAS-TEC foam with a hard cap, the new model carries a pad of HD Memory Foam – a blend of PU and EVA. This results in improved flexibility and meets the requirements of enduro racers looking for lightweight protection that doesn’t affect pedalling.
Super_Perforator_Neoprene: Very flexible and robust neoprene with superior breathability. Of course not if compared with a mesh fabric. But for neoprene it is the most breathable one we used to date.
Snug_Loop: Around-the-knee loop construction. Made of sticky skin neoprene to keep the pad exactly where it belongs.
Ionic_Fit: The human body is neither cylindrical nor symmetrical. Thus, you have to forget about flat 2D patterns. We use our expertise in tailoring body-fitting wetsuits to shape anatomic fitting pads for a natural riding position.
Thigh_Match: A hidden routed velcro strap helps to adjust the protector above your knee.
HD_Memory_Foam: Closed cell foam with extremely high shock absorbing characteristics, including multi impacts.
Fine_Mesh: Elastic and lightweight mesh fabric for optimal ventilation and additional freedom of movement.
Power_Aramid: Power_Aramid is a synthetic fiber originally developed by DuPont. Today it’s used for a range of applications from bulletproof helmets via tires to bow strings. It offers outstanding tear resistance and tensile strength.
Sanitized: Sanitized® is a certified antibacterial fabric treatment to prevent bad odor from bacteria, mildew etc. in moist or sweaty environments. It uses the active biocidal substance zinc pyrithione to shut down bacterial cell growth. Sanitized® is perfectly safe for your health and the environment and fully complies with the strict and independent testing standards of bluesign®, Allergy UK and Oeko-Tex 100/Class I (safe for babies).
