Priority & budget
Why Elbow Guards matters
★★☆☆☆Suggested budget: 5%

Useful for rocky terrain; sleeve-style flexible guards balance comfort and protection.

Fit matters

Comfort first for hard enduro

Long rides magnify small discomforts. Prioritize fit: if an item hurts or distracts after 2–3 hours, it’s the wrong size or setup. Return or exchange when possible. Remember, bodies and conditions differ.
