Rheon Curved Knee Motorcycle Motorbike Armour Protector - CE2
Soft and flexible, energy-absorbing super polymer armour with dynamic energy dissipating technology

Description





Features
Rheon™ Technology
Rheon™ technology has been developed for over 15 years by a group of scientists, engineers and designers at Imperial College, London - regarded as one of the leading institutes of innovation around the world. The name originates from the branch of physics "Rheology" - a unique discipline exploring the flow of matter and how that matter reacts when force is applied to it.
Its principles are at the core of Rheon™ technology.
How it Works
At the core of Rheon™ technology is an energy-absorbing super polymer. It is soft and flexible in its natural state, but absorbs energy by stiffening when subjected to force.
When formed using Rheon's patented computational design techniques, Rheon™ is created into what is known as a metamaterial. Delivering new properties that were previously thought impossible with conventional materials.
Impact Control
Rheon™ technology dissipates energy dynamically.
It is soft and flexible when in its natural state but stiffens dynamically on impact to dissipate significantly more energy than conventional static materials.
This property provides a breakthrough for applications where flexibility and movement are paramount, but high levels of energy control are a must.
Vibration Control
Rheon™ technology actively dampens vibration and noise.
The technology reacts to control small vibrations or constant noise for enhanced comfort and performance.
A game-changer for any application where reducing vibration is needed.
Tension Control
Rheon™ technology reacts to changes in movement.
This enables the technology to dynamically stiffen, giving support when needed most and relaxing when not.
A new era for comfort and performance.
Latest Verified Customer Reviews for Rheon Curved Knee Protector - CE2
Not tested for their intended purpose and I hope that remains the case. One thing that I noticed was because they are so low profile when I inserted them into my leather trousers they have a little bit of movement in their holder. More so than the thicker variety. Doesn't seem to be a problem though.
This armour, bought as a replacement for some Forcefield CE2 elbow armour is very flexible and comfortable in use, especially as it has a cupped design. The structure is clever and ventilated and is pretty thin.
My current Stadler riding textile suit is fantastic but the level 2 armour is hard and has been uncomfortable for years. I have replaced the shoulder and elbow pads with this Rheon protection (all level 2) and wow what a difference - you just don't know it's there. Transformed my kit completely. Cannot recommend highly enough.
