SixSixOne (United States) - Press Release: Mountain Biking’s original protection was begged, borrowed or adapted from other sports. We’ve taken over 20 years of heavy impacts, slide outs and pedal slams to stamp our place in mountain bike history and we are still charging hard to help shape the future of MTB protection.

In 1999 when riders were pushing the limits of bike and body, a 661 icon logo on your knees became the standard mark of a mountain biker. Fast track to 2021, and while we didn’t anticipate a global pandemic, we’ve been working hard to deliver on our brand promise, to produce exceptional quality protection delivered at an affordable price point. 

New Recon Elbow Black:

The original Recon pads were an exercise in minimalist trail protection. Our completely redesigned CE 1621-1 rated Recon pads take the torch on and improve all aspects of our most pedal friendly pad.

The New Recon features increased protection certification from a machine washable D3O Ghost insert that gives maximum flexibility and increased impact absorption.

An extended sleeve construction for improved comfort and a secure fit backed with our Padlock connection system that links our kneepads and protective shorts.
