Alpinestars RK-1 Plasma Knee Braces

The RK-1 PLASMA knee brace is anatomically shaped and suitable for all types of off-road riding. It is designed to comfortably support the knee while being lightweight, breathable and protective. The Nucleon PLASMA knee protector is embedded in an innovative hybrid frame construction consisting of a flexible composite material injected onto a high-performance polymer blend to provide excellent frame rigidity while remaining flexible at the top and bottom of the straps.
