Product Description

  • Thor's Force knee guards are their premiere knee guard, offering more coverage and protection than conventional guards yet isn't as comprehensive and cumbersome or expensive as knee braces.
  • Thor has a great reputation for motocross and ATV gear and protection, and the Force brace is right on point. It's got great style, and anatomically correct left and right guards for the most comfortable fit.
  • Thor Force knee guards use a dual pivot system which mimics the movement of your knee without bulky mechanics.
  • Thor Force knee guards also use a wrapped floating knee cup that is designed to improve protection and comfort.
  • Thor designed the Force knee guard to fit riders by size to maximize comfort and safety even further. The SM/MD fits most riders up to 5'7" tall, the LG/XL fits most riders over 5'7" tall, and the XXL fits most riders with larger than average legs.
  • Note: The Thor Force Knee Guards are sold as a pair.

Force guards
the knee guards are excellent for the price more like getting a knee brace for knee guard price. I broke a set of asterick and bought these because i didnt want to spend another butt ton of money. the only thing i do not like about them is after riding a long time a strap comes undone.i dont know it tho until i go to take them off. they stay secure and do not move around a lot wen riding. Overall it was money well spent

Great gear!
These fit great look great and feel great! Only thing, definitely wear some sort of under armor protection between your skin and the pads because they chafe.
Overall
GREAT BUY
when i got these knee guards they were a little stiff but after wearing them for 20 min or so they loosened right up and u could barley feel them on. yes the padding on the back is a little itchy but just wear long socks it gets ride of it. it is really all plastic on the front witch makes them a little bulky but is very protective. and all around the price is good and they feel good and they are just a great buy

Awesome product
Thor has really made an outstanding knee guard at an unarguable price. Very comfortable and has great ergonomic movement. Really helps with getting your knees right up on the shrouds in turns. I would reccomend wearing some kind of under armor to prevent chaffing the back of the legs. Other than that I am impressed.

Suprised at how good they were
I was thinking of just knee guards and these turned out to be great knee support and protection. They are very comfortable, easy to adjust and will recommend them to all my friends that are just looking for a little extra support for thier knees.

It really protects
these knee braces really protect your knees and part of your thighs. the price is good too. the first time i rode with these i crashed and got knocked unconsious. then a guy came flying over that same jump and ran over my legs exactly where i was wearing these. my knees where perfectly fine. who knows what would have happened without these. my only complaint is that the straps scratch your legs so i would recommend knee socks. and they are quite bulky so not as much flexability. but its worth it.
Overall
Screws
the knee pads are great and everything but my main concern and why i gave it such a badd rating is because the bolts in the bracepart of it keep coming out and its dangerous because ill be in the middle of a race and then all of a sudden ill have a screw in between my shin and boot and it scraps me all up and im a lil upset about that plus it throws my focus off beecause all i can think about is how much it hurts sitting in between my shin and boot

Thor Force Knee Braces/Guards
I bought these braces early in the summer hoping to save a few bucks and actually get a little protection at the same time. As of right now I'm fairly pleased with them, only flaws I have had with them is that the sizing is rather generalized so i cant use the upper velcro it bunches up behind my knees and makes my legs practically immobile i just velcro it to the front of the brace and use the strap in the back of my thigh

Good, but can be improved
They protect good. They feel good when broken in. I didnt like the lack of sizing. (only 2 sizes) I think thats why myself and others are getting them tight around the calf. The thigh straps on mine broke after about a year and a half. But I repaired them. I also lost a screw and replaced that as well. Even after my negative comments, they seem to be the best in their class.

Could this break a femur.?
I am looking at getting some knee/shin guards and not braces because of possible femur breakings. Do you think this guard could break a femur? Thanks for any help.

NO! Crashing your bike does that! Those are there to help not mesh up your knee. Whats better the knee or femur? How do you make choices of what to break and what not to? Put some protective gear on and ride to your ability!!

There is no guarantee you won't break your femur no matter what you're wearing. The femur is the strongest bone in the body. I can guarantee you that braces don't cause a femur break, including these. I would blame the severity of your falls.

these are not intended to be worn over blue jeans, they need to be up against the skin, or thin knee sock.

Hi i am 178cm tall and weigh 70kg what size would be a good fit?
Over 3 years ago Location: Ramstein AB, Germany
I'd go with the lg/xl for sure. I' m about youre height and use the same guard
karr Over 3 years ago Location: Rio Rancho, NM
What are the main size differences between the s/m and the l/xl?
I have tried on a pair of my friends L/XL and they are way to big around my thigh and calf. On the s/m, are they a lot shorter or is the knee area tighter? If the main difference is just the straps, that would be great to know. I am 6' so the hieght on the l/xl is great, just to big around. Summery (lol) How tall are each for the shin then thigh parts and are the knee caps about the same? thank you and look forward to ordering soon.

Unfortunately Thor doesn't offer a very specific sizing chart for these knee guards. They only reference size by rider height. And I know this info doesn't help much, but that is all we know about these knee. Maybe someone else will chime in with actual comparison between the sizes.

Are these bulkier than the asterisk??
I just broke my asterisk braces, but I don´t wanna spend that much money.......are these similar quality to the asterisk??

the force knee guards are a little narrower than the asterik braces. keep in mind though, they are not braces, but do offer a little protection in the event of a crash. i have been using them since 2006 and love them. i did have to take off the lower strap because it didnt fit good inside my sidi crossfire boots. i would definitely recommend this product if you dont wanna shell out all that dough for another set of braces
