Discover optimal protection for your knees with the knee guard Alpinestars RK-1 Plasma, designed for exceptional comfort during your motocross adventures.
Description+-
Anatomically profiled for all off-road riding styles, the knee protection RK-1 Plasma is designed to provide comfortable knee support while remaining lightweight, breathable, and protective.
This knee protection includes a Nucleon Plasma knee guard embedded in an innovative hybrid frame construction, made of a flexible composite over-moulded onto a blend of high-performance polymers to provide exceptional rigidity while remaining flexible at the upper and lower straps.
Key features
This protection offers structural integrity and optimal support while being ultra-lightweight and adaptable, thus reducing the risk of injuries to the medial and lateral collateral ligaments, the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments, as well as the lateral and medial meniscus.
The replaceable three-part knee cups are built with an outer polyurethane shell supported by a Nucleon Plasma guard for an optimal blend of impact protection, flexibility, and scratch resistance.
The self-centering knee cup and strategically placed upper and lower patella extensions ensure maximum coverage, regardless of the angle of flex or extension.
The stable and slim four-point hinge design follows the knee joint while extension stops, available from 0° to 30°, help adjust the protection to the desired maximum opening angle.
The stainless steel rings in the four-point hinge system have anti-oxidation treatment.
The Nucleon Plasma is a viscoelastic material made from bio-based polymers and formed into a flexible structure in all directions while maintaining the ability to dissipate impact energies.
Lightweight and highly ventilated, the knee protection offers strong dispersion and absorption of impact forces while ensuring maximum coverage in all riding positions.
