At Chromag we simply want to produce things that the staff want to use, day in, day out, which is why we're very proud to announce the Rift. We saw an opportunity to produce a knee guard that ticked some boxes that we felt were currently left empty, and in partnering with the engineers at RHEON™ Labs, we've managed to create a guard that we're extremely proud of, but most of all, keen to slip on whenever we head out for a ride. The majority of the protection is located up front provided by RHEON™ and encased in an aramid skin to provide resistance to abrasions and tears. Additional lateral foam inserts keep the pad low-profile and allow for unrestricted movement, without bumping the cost sky high. The RHEON™ insert is located on an airprene backing to provide structure, and also moderate temperatures on those all day epics. The calf gusset is designed to keep the pad in place, combined with the generous silicone band around the top, and the upper stretch mesh which allows movement of your leg while keeping everything where it needs to be. The Rift comes in 5 sizes from XS to XL, and is fully machine washable. CE certified EN 1621-1:2012.
