I feel like G Form pads have been designed with me in mind. As a rider who hates the idea of big bulky pads stretching out my jeans. But have come to realise that some light protection can make a big difference on the crashes that aren’t really as rare as I’d like to think.

G Form have been going for quite a while now, and they’re tried and tested design is still probably the lightest on the market, whilst offering plenty of protection against general slam, bails and slide outs. It goes without saying that light weight pads like this can never be expected to save you from a Michael Jackson style knee slide from 8ft above the landing. But there’ll certainly take the edge off the damage non-the-less.

What these pads lack in bulkiness they make up for double in comfort. Thanks to G Forms RPT technology, which stays soft while you’re riding, then stiffens in response to impact, making it possible to completely forget you’re riding in pads by the time you’ve dropped in the ramp.
