madmostin Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 661 gel pads. Used them for cycling, trials and enduro and tested against a 4t exhaust. No injury. 5 star product. Wouldn't leave home without them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcman56 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Everyone I know uses standard MX style knee pads. I hit one hard enough to crack the hard plastic on the outside so it seems like a good idea to have it there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyboxer Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 I use the Forcefield ones, very comfy and £75 Good protection too, saved my knees and shins a few times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasgas249uk Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 I use cut down Wulf knee guards with padding and a hard plastic back. Some of this "padding" wont help at all landing on rocks with your weight on it. The hard plastic backing is a must Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnthezoo Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 There was me thinking that trials riders didn't wear protection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxmann3 Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Fox enduro mtb pads are much slimmer than the above ones, I use them. I have both. The bulkier ones will not fit under trials Lycra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakennstirred Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 I went for these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201101920942?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&var=500277234657&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsdtr Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Anyone have suggestions for combo knee/shin protections and support? I have to wear knee support (has aluminum side hinges)for Meniscus issues. I have to prevent any knee twisting or side pressure....but I would also like additional knee cap and shin protection. Sucks getting old, but I'd rather ride with support as needed and a bit of pain during and after than sitting still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
