G-Form Pro-X2 Mountain Bike Elbow Pads - Elbow Compression Sleeve for Elbow Support

The media could not be loaded.  Don’t buy the gimmick. Buy real pads that actually offer protection.

Fit was ok, elbow protection is very minimal at best. G-form knee pads had good protection, but the matching elbow pad is pretty weak.After a small fall, materials already rip. Not at all durable, will need to get another elbow pad, should have return before 30days, but didn't had a chance to try out. I would skip this elbow pad unless you just want peace of mind instead of real protection. 2 stars instead of 1 because it was comfortable, but no lasting protection.

Perfect for the accident prone daredevil Mtn biker who won’t come to grips with his age. Honestly, I take more risks now since I know I’m protected and that makes it even more fun. These are very comfortable and machine washable. Buy them.

A nice balance between comfort and protection. These may not protect you from a massive blow, but for ordinary wear and tear and preventing scrapes and bruises, they’re pretty darn good! I’d rather have these than bulky uncomfortable ones I’d never want to wear. UPDATE: I ended up returning these. If you live in the midwest with high humidity and 100 degree weather, these are very hot! I couldn't manage the heat from them. If you live someplace cooler, they will serve you well.

First off, if you measure in between sizes, go with the bigger size. I bought these for a trip to Moab Utah. They were great, As long as it’s a strait on fall. I had a pair of G form kneepads as well, and took a fall with forward momentum so I ended up ripping those. Better the Kneepads ripping, then my skin. I bought these, because I wanted protection but I did not want to wear anything big and bulky that made me feel like a American gladiator.

G Form Pro x2 Elbow pads are light and comfortable. I like the fabric. I do not have muscular arms so the double band at the top inside of the sleeve does stay in place. However, I did feel like I was going to rub a blister because my arm and skin are kind of sensitive. I am not a mountain biker. I am an older rider trying to make sure I don't crash and take off a bunch of elbow skin or crush my elbow. I do not think it is going to protect my bones from a severe impact, but it will definitely protect my arms from a bad bruise or scrape. The plastic/rubber pad flexes and is not scratchy on the inside of the sleeve. I like them.

Definately go a size up if you fall between sizes based on your 2 measurements. Im glad I did because the size down would never have fit. The first time I wore these I was thinking maybe these are still too small. I almost returned, but tried them a second time and the fit loosened to be more comfortable. The feel great in that they are so thin and they are built to give you full extension. I always hated elbow pads because they restrict too much. Well worth the money to have ther extra freedom. Was 90 out and I feel they do a great job wicking sweat.

Much less substaintial then they first appear. Not really that much padding or protection -especoslly given the heafty price. They also do not quite "stay" where they are supposed to -thus compromising the protection they afford. All-in-all not a great value.

Don’t fit and can’t return, can’t leave a bad review because it will just get deleted. No customer service what’s so ever. Will be fighting the charges on my credit card.

I use these for mountain biking. I think G-Form has the right idea with making sleeve elbow and knee guards like these but I wish they do the following:-Add a silicone gripper to the bottom cuff. Their heavier duty Elite elbow pads have them, why not these?-Add silicone grippers on the inside at the elbow. While I like these because they're thin and comfortable, they don't do a whole lot to protect against crashes. They'll absorb the initial impact but if you're 'sliding' and crashing, these will move and you'll tear your arm apart - True story with the first gen of these elbow pads.

These elbow pads are low profile, so they can fit underneath a long sleeve jersey or jacket, but don't look dorky when you have short sleeves. I fell on one elbow with them on, and it was sore for a day, but I didn't get cut/scratched which is why I have them. They also don't make you feel hot.

Among all the elbow pads I have used, there was no single one that couldn't take one light fall. I fell once from my bike and it riped! My sweater would do a much better job than this! Seems the thin material doesn't absorb any shock. So spend a little more and get the real, safe pads that worth the bucks, such like the "Fox"!

The Medium elbow pads fit right to the chart and are really nice lightweight pads. These aren't hard plastic pads, so I think really hard impacts will still be harsh, but for the XC and dirt jumping I do they have been super comfortable. No crashes yet, but have worked great on some whacks on trees on the trail. They are also very comfortable in the high temperatures and breath better than I expected.Very happy, also bought the knee pads and happy with them as well.
