Leatt
Value hard‑shell guards with reliable impact protection and hinged design.
Our enduro team recommends this for hard enduro based on safety, fit/mobility, real‑world testing, and value at its tier. We explain the trade‑offs so you can decide if it fits your riding, terrain, and budget.
Why we like it
CE impact certified guards with widely reported comfort; ensure secure fit to mitigate slippage risk.
Safety
- CE (impact)
- Safety first: We verify certifications and real impact performance.
- Fit & mobility: Comfort reduces fatigue and improves control on long, technical days.
- Field‑tested: Picks are validated by riders across terrain and crashes.
- Tiered value: Budget / Value / Premium based on riding goals and frequency.
- Zero fluff: No paid placements. If we wouldn’t ride it, you won’t see it.
High risk joint. Braces mitigate ligament injury; pads protect against impact. Fit and retention are critical.
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.
We personally recommend top choices here because knee protection has outsized safety and control impact. Allocate more budget, verify certifications, and choose proven models. Still prioritize fit: comfort maintains control on long technical days.
