Troy Lee 5550 Elbow/Forearm Pads: An Easy Fit
Troy Lee is well-known for great design that integrates form with function, and the 5550 elbow guards are no exception. The 5550 elbow pads use a combination of different fabrics, integrated Lycra and low-compression zones in a strapless, tapered elastic sleeve with no-slip internal grip zones. The internal elbow cap provides high-impact protection with a close, comfortable fit. The Strata-Foam allows the pad to flex along with your elbow without pulling on the forearm guard. All this protection and fit is wrapped up in a great looking, understated design.
Troy Lee Designs: More Than Just a Pretty Face
Troy Lee helmets are known for their gorgeous, intricate, mega-cool graphics. But equally important is the company’s quest for thoughtful design that combines functional an aesthetic objectives. In other words, Troy Lee makes helmets that not only look good but are designed to keep you safe and comfortable. The company began in the late 1970s when a teenaged Troy Lee, a racer himself, started making custom-painted helmets in his garage. Troy Lee Designs specializes in making exclusive clothing lines for the fastest racers of the world. The company continuously gathers feedback from top racers and incorporates their needs and desires back into Troy Lee products. Their line of casual clothing includes rally jackets, t-shirts, long sleeved shirts, and for men, women, and kids. They have designs catering to bicycle riders, motocross, and MX riders. For MX racers, there is also a wide range of helmets, gloves, pants, jerseys, short and accessories to choose from.
