LEATT ReaFlex UltraLite knee pads in black : the minimalist choice for mountain bikers seeking reliable protection without sacrificing freedom of movement. Designed for demanding rides where every gram counts, these knee pads combine pedaling comfort and CE-certified shock absorption in an ultra-discreet design.
The ReaFlex UltraLite knee pads provide complete knee protection thanks to a ReaFlex gel shield covering the entire kneecap and peripatellar impact zones. The high-cut sock extends up the thigh to keep the protection in place throughout the ride, without slipping down or causing uncomfortable calf compression.
The core of the protection lies in the ReaFlex gel, inserted into an abrasion-resistant mesh pocket. This low-profile gel has a soft texture for everyday wear and instantly hardens upon impact to dissipate energy. The full-body protection is perforated to promote airflow directly to the knee. The entire assembly remains extremely thin and lightweight, ensuring a natural fit under or over cycling shorts.
ReaFlex technology is the signature feature of these knee pads: it's a thin, flexible gel whose molecular structure stiffens upon impact, then immediately returns to its original flexibility. This viscoelastic behavior provides dynamic protection without the drawbacks of a rigid shell, while maintaining complete freedom of movement on the pedal.
ReaFlex UltraLite knee pads are certified according to the European standard EN 1621-1 Level 1 for knee protection. This certification guarantees that the material absorbs impact energy in accordance with current regulatory requirements for lower limb protection intended for motorized and non-motorized sports.
The high-cut, elongated sock is constructed from moisture-wicking AirMesh fabric, ensuring active ventilation and a dry fit even in hot weather. Strategically placed, non-slip silicone grips prevent slippage, eliminating the need for adjustments while skiing downhill. The ergonomic design conforms to the shape of the knee and thigh, eliminating pressure points on the calf for extended wear without discomfort.
