Knee Guards Ion K-Pact ZIP

The K-Pact Zip is the evolution of the popular and award-winning K-Pact: the protector itself is sewn from Super_Perforator_Neoprene, allowing excellent ventilation with a close fit.

In terms of protection, the K-Pact Zip uses the proven SAS-TEC pad, which is certified according to EN 1621, level 2. In this combination, the K-Pact Zip meets the highest demands for a knee brace for almost all cycling disciplines, with the exception of cross-country.

The Quick_E zipper opens the protector completely and can be easily put on and taken off without having to take off your shoes. This makes the K-Pact Zip even suitable as a protector for extended rides with long climbs.

 Features of the ION Bike Protection K-Pact Zip Knee Pads

• SAS-TEC padding: SAS-TEC is an innovative German manufacturer of protectors of special quality. The company has a long history in the field of motorcycle protective gear and is ION's first choice when it comes to reliable security. For this reason, protectors often use three-dimensionally shaped protection pads made of memory foam with exceptionally high absorption properties.

• Super_Perforator_Neoprene: Very flexible neoprene, especially robust and above all very permeable to air. Of course, it cannot be compared to mesh material, but in terms of neoprene, it is the most air-permeable currently in use.

• Quick_E zipper: Thanks to the side zipper, the protector can be fully opened. Less time putting it on means more time riding.

• Power_Aramid patella upper material: Power_Aramid is a synthetic fiber originally developed by DuPont. It is now used in a wide range of applications, such as bulletproof helmets, tires, and bowstrings. The material offers extraordinary qualities in terms of resistance to tearing and abrasion. And therefore it is perfect for protectors.

• Lightweight EVA Side Padding: Closed-cell foam provides lightweight, flexible protection where you need it.

• Air_Prene: Neoprene is quite versatile: it even absorbs impact energy to some degree during a fall. The lightweight Airprene_Padding is perforated to improve air permeability and prevent overheating underneath.
