The KLite Zip knee protector from Ion offers medium protection and is designed for enduro use (protection level EN1621-1:2012/L1). The removable K L1 Lite Pad provides more than just abrasion protection and absorbs light to medium impacts. The pre-shaped pads follow the natural contour of the knee and fit ergonomically. A seamless, abrasion-resistant layer on the front ensures that the pads do not slip during falls. The extremely durable and tightly woven aramid material adds to the robustness. Integrated EVA pads on the sides absorb light impacts. If you prefer to pedal uphill or on the way to the trail without knee pads, you can easily remove the K Lite Zip thanks to the side zipper, without having to take off your shoes.
