Have you ever had your arm in a cast? You don't even realize how much your hands, well, handle, every day, until an injured arm knocks you out.

Here at Bike Mailorder, we carry many different elbow pads and padded sleeves that keep your arms safe. Just pick a pair!
Protect your arms? What's the point, after all you have two of them...No, it doesn't work like that! When you're on your bike, in the event of a fall the elbows and forearms are among the most vulnerable parts of your body. You can effectively minimize the risk of a nasty injury to this highly sensitive area with a high-quality elbow protector from our shop.
Special material for lightweight arm protectors
In bike protectors, different materials are combined to provide the best protection for the skin and bones together. In a soft pad there are thick foam pads inside a fabric shell, they cushion an impact. A hard shell protector can do a bit more, the outermost layer of the protectors consists of a plastic shell that protects you from sharp objects, stones or gravel. It also allows the body to slide along the surface, preventing abrupt stopping or snagging. This converts the force applied into movement, so injuries are significantly milder. Under the hard shell special foams cushion the inside of the elbow protector. There are two different variations here: Some foams are crumpled, but then spring back to their original shape. Other special foam hardens on impact, providing ideal protection for the elbow and forearm. Protectors in which these foams are processed should be replaced after a fall!
Elbow protectors with top comfort
Although the high-quality arm protectors from our shop offer you the best protection, you don't have to sacrifice wearing comfort! A low weight, skin-friendly materials and the very good fit ensure an extremely comfortable wearing of the protectors.
You can wear your elbow protectors both under and over your cycling jersey . Velcro strips allow the arm protector to be individually adjusted and quickly and securely fixed in place. Additionally, attached silicone strips prevent the protector from slipping despite the hardest MTB action. How exactly to wear the elbow protectors so that they fit comfortably and protect you best, you can read in the specifications in the shop or in the instructions for use. The use of skin-friendly materials ensures good cooling and the fabrics are breathable. Arm protectors are suitable for all-mountain bikers as well as for downhill bikers, free riders or BMX riders!
