E-Pact Elbow Pad

While it's never a desired side affect, when we're getting a little rowdy through hand-built sections of rooty and rock-laden DH trail, catching the occasional elbow to a tree is hard to avoid — that's why Ion crafts the E-Pact Elbow Pads. These pre-shaped pads keep your arms in a comfortably bent position — because nobody's a fan of riding downhill with locked elbows. They are crafted from HD memory foam to soak up impact, and topped with a hardcap to take the brunt of hits. To let your skin breathe, Ion employs a perforated neoprene in the main body to let air work its way in through channels, while a Power Aramid upper fabric prevents bushes and branches from ripping through.

Bulky

First of all, I sized up based on previous reviews and had to exchange it for my size on the actual size chart. True to size! However, once I got the correct size, I just felt they were overall too bulky. They stick out awkwardly, especially under a shirt—what few shirts would even fit over. I've had better so I'll go back to what I know.

Good Elbow pad for protection; size up

Familiarity:
I returned this product before using it
Size Bought:
Medium
Height:
5' 8"
Weight:
165

This elbow pad has a lot of protection and is lite weight. I would probably buy a size-up from what the measurements state for sizing. This elbow pad has quite a bit of elastic built in it already, so elbow pad won't slip off at all. However, it was pretty snug getting on my elbow, I ordered a Medium; I was 11.8 inches above elbow & 8 inches below the elbow (which is close to end of M-sizing). A large would have worked better, especially for when I get sweaty - to get it off / on. I clicked 'Runs small' on the product fit, it's true to size, however I think it would be best to size up. My biceps are weak, can't imagine someone with muscles lol... def size up~. (I'm going to exchange mine, but hopefully this review helps someone so they don't have to buy / exchange)

Excellent fit at a great price point

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

Both elbow and knee pads fit comfortably on long rides. Not too hot at 85 degrees on the trail. Less pinching up or down than cheaper pads I have owned. Adjustment bands were not digging in through the pad at all.
