I love these Guardian kneepads! The Fidlock clasps make putting these on after I have already put on my shoes so much easier, there is no excuse not to put them on. I have talked to riders who talk about a friend/family member sustaining permanent knee damage because they either weren’t wearing their pads or had slipped them down to their shins to cool their knees.
The back of the guardian is open, so better heat dissipation.
Yeah these are more expensive than the more affordable knee-sleeve style, but the build-quality and level of padding in my opinion is well worth it!

Easy on and off

I was on the verge of ordering XL but decided to follow the guidance that said something like if your thigh measurement calls for a different size than your calf measurement go with the size that fits your calf. Glad I did that because the XL would have been way too big and the large is not even close to being too small. Haven’t ridden my bike with them yet but I have used them for my e-skateboard and they are pretty comfortable. The magnet buckles have a little string with a tiny bead that you pull to release, but that all strikes me as very delicate and unlikely to survive a moderate wipeout because they are on the outer side of your knee. Suppose if the buckles were toward the inside of your knee they might scratch your bike. Hope I never find out how durable the tiny bead things are.

Recently had an issue with one of my knee pads straps coming loose, from where it’s attached. I reached out to Avision MTB and they quickly had a new pair in the mail. That was really impressive. My wife and I love how easy these are to put on and take off. If the equipment makes it easy to use- you’re more likely to use them. Thanks again Avision MTB!

It took me some time to accommodate with the guardians but now I can't ride without them. They are a bit heavier that my previous kneepads. Fortunately I haven't crashed yet but I'm sure they will not budge. The fidlock mounts are super nice and I love that I can just take the pads off in between park laps. Much love from Romania, Avision!
