Arcon HD Protection Wear Back Protector

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve ridden rough park laps and long enduro days in the ARCON HD Pro, and what stands out is how well it balances real protection with ventilation you can actually feel. Once I dialed in the straps, it stayed put without limiting movement, and the cooling effect kept it comfortable even on slow, technical climbs."

When we drop into steep lines or weave through rough, chattery trails, we want protection that moves with us and stays breathable all day. The ION Arcon HD Protection Wear Back Protector gives us that balance, blending CE level-2 coverage in both the chest and back with a design shaped by trail experience. Built around RE ZRO® protection components, it keeps weight low, encourages airflow through its open structure, and feels surprisingly unrestrictive whether we’re pedaling to the top or charging through fast, loose sections.

As we adjust the fit, the 3D-pre-shaped protection wraps closely and securely, supported by SyncBody straps that fine-tune length and tension for a personalized hold. Power Slide Caps add sliding capability for angled impacts, and the 360° AC_cooling effect keeps air moving through the entire protector—front and back—so the fit stays comfortable even during high-output efforts. With durable materials and a simple one-buckle entry, it’s a piece we can put on fast and forget about until the ride is over.
