Bluegrass Aura Core Elbow Pads – Slim-Profile Level 1 Protection for Trail, Enduro, DH and eMTB

The Aura Core is Bluegrass's under-jersey elbow pad for riders who want real protection without sacrificing mobility or fit. EN 1621 Level 1 Type A certified, it uses Triple-Flex SAS-TEC technology to absorb impacts while remaining flexible and form-fitting rather than stiff or bulky.

What It Does

Long-sleeve construction wraps the elbow closely, keeping the pad in position through rough terrain without readjustment
Four-way stretch fabric moves with your arm in every direction
Minimal-seam design reduces pressure points when you're gripping hard over technical ground
Slim enough to sit cleanly under a long-sleeve jersey — suited to racing, cold-weather riding, or any session where bulk gets in the way

Technical Insight

SAS-TEC is a rate-sensitive material: it stays pliable during normal movement but stiffens on impact to dissipate force. The EN 1621-1 Level 1 Type A certification confirms it meets the standard for elbow and forearm protectors across that impact class.

Sizing & Fit

Available in X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, and X-Large. The close, second-skin fit means sizing accurately matters — if you are between sizes, consider your jersey fit preference: size up for a looser feel under baggier kit, or stay true to size for a locked-in under-jersey fit. No official Bluegrass size chart was available at time of listing; check the Bluegrass website for current arm circumference guidance.

Why Torque Collective Stock This

A pad that genuinely disappears under a jersey is useful across the full spectrum of trail and enduro riding, as well as eMTB where longer days in varied conditions make comfort under protection more relevant. The Level 1 Type A certification and SAS-TEC construction give this pad a credible technical baseline for the riders we work with.
