FAQs

Are these pants suitable for all types of mountain biking?

These pants are specifically designed for gravity-focused disciplines like downhill and enduro due to their durable construction and protective features. While usable for other styles, their weight and features are optimized for demanding terrain.

Can I wear knee pads with these pants?

Yes, the pre-curved legs are designed with ample space to comfortably accommodate most MTB knee pads without restricting movement or causing discomfort.

How durable are the Deflextion reinforcement panels?

The Deflextion reinforcements on the knees and seat are designed for high abrasion resistance and impact absorption, enhancing the longevity of the pants in critical areas.

What is the benefit of the floating elastic waistband?

The floating elastic waistband provides a secure and adaptable fit that moves with you, preventing the pants from sagging, especially when carrying a hydration pack, and eliminating uncomfortable pressure points.

How do I clean the pants to maintain their features?

Machine wash cold (30°C) with mild soap, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Reapplying a DWR spray after washing helps maintain water and dirt repellency.

What does 'bluesign® approved fabric' mean?

Bluesign® approval signifies that the fabric meets strict environmental, health, and safety standards, ensuring responsible manufacturing processes and reduced impact on the environment.

Is the seat panel completely waterproof?

Yes, the seat features a laminated 3-layer seamless construction that is both waterproof and breathable, providing excellent protection against trail spray and moisture.

Troubleshooting

Fit is too loose or too tight

Adjust the moto-style buckle at the waist and ensure the stretch-fit ankles are tightened appropriately. The floating elastic waistband also provides some adaptability.

Water repellency seems reduced

After washing, reapply a DWR C0, PFAS-free treatment spray to the fabric, especially the seat area. Ensure the garment is clean before reapplication.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Check the zipper for any trapped fabric or debris. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a small amount of water. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Pants feel warm during hot weather riding

The laser-cut perforated panels offer ventilation, but the midweight fabric can retain heat. Consider wearing lighter base layers or focusing on rides during cooler parts of the day. Ensure all ventilation zippers are open if applicable (though this model uses perforations).

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable 4-way stretch material provides excellent freedom of movement.

Cons

  • Midweight fabric may be warm in very hot conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These pants are designed for immediate use. Adjust the moto-style buckle at the waist and the stretch-fit ankles to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the zippered pockets are closed before riding. The pre-curved leg design accommodates most standard knee pads.

Compatibility: The Leatt Gravity 4.0 MTB Pant V26 is compatible with a wide range of MTB knee pads and can be worn with various types of cycling chamois or base layers. The relaxed fit ensures compatibility with most MTB shoe styles.

Care Instructions: To maintain the performance and longevity of your pants:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with mild soap. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron.
  3. Water Repellency: The DWR C0, PFAS-free treatment will naturally diminish over time. Reapply a suitable DWR spray after several washes to restore water and dirt repellency.
  4. Zipper Care: Keep YKK zippers clean and free of debris for smooth operation. A gentle brush can help remove dirt.
