Collection: MTB Accessories

(8)

The Alpinestars MTB accessories collection includes essential riding gear designed to enhance protection, performance, and comfort on the trail. This includes protective equipment like knee guards, elbow guards, and body armor, as well as functional accessories such as hydration packs, riding socks, goggle lenses, helmet visors, and replacement parts for MTB helmets and protective gear.

Each accessory is engineered with the same racing-proven technology and Italian craftsmanship that defines Alpinestars' championship heritage, ensuring durability and performance across all riding disciplines from cross-country to downhill.

Many Alpinestars MTB accessories are designed with universal compatibility in mind. Items like knee guards, elbow protection, hydration packs, and riding socks can be used independently with any brand's apparel or equipment. However, helmet-specific accessories such as visors, replacement padding, and goggle systems are engineered to fit Alpinestars MTB helmets precisely.

For protective armor and impact protection, Alpinestars designs many products with adjustable straps and ergonomic fits that work across different body types and can be worn under or over various riding apparel brands. Always check individual product specifications for compatibility details.

Proper care extends the life and performance of your MTB accessories. For soft goods like knee guards, elbow protection, and riding socks, hand wash or use a gentle machine cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and high-heat drying, as these can degrade technical fabrics and protective foam materials.

Hard-shell protection and helmet accessories should be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Inspect all protective gear regularly for signs of impact damage, worn straps, or compressed foam—replace any accessory that has sustained significant impact or shows structural compromise to maintain optimal protection on the trail.

Alpinestars MTB protective accessories are developed using racing-proven technology and engineered to meet or exceed relevant safety standards for mountain biking. Many protective items feature CE-certified armor where applicable, particularly in knee guards, elbow protection, and body armor designed for high-impact trail riding and downhill disciplines.

The collection benefits from Alpinestars' six decades of motorsports protection expertise, with design and material innovations derived from MotoGP and motocross applications adapted specifically for the unique demands of mountain biking. Each accessory undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it delivers reliable protection without compromising mobility or comfort.

While Alpinestars MTB accessories are specifically engineered for the demands of mountain biking—including trail riding, enduro, and downhill—many items offer versatility across cycling disciplines. Protective gear like knee guards and elbow protection can be suitable for BMX, gravel riding, or bike park sessions where similar impact protection is needed.

However, MTB-specific accessories are optimized for off-road conditions with features like enhanced breathability, mud-resistant materials, and extended coverage areas that may be more robust than needed for pure road cycling. For road-specific cycling needs, explore the cycling collection which offers accessories tailored to pavement riding disciplines.
