$50.00 | | Purchased At: | LBS | | Strengths: | They are very good pads. Let you legs breath. Hold up well to a lot of biggg crashes | | Weaknesses: | Center two straps needed to be longer. I could not get them around my calf. | | Bike Setup: | Prophet | | Bottom Line: | Good all around pad. I finally cracked one after a hard hit to a big rock. I got right back up with no blood on me. They did there job. It would be a five but the 2 straps are just to short. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$70.00 | | Strengths: | They make you look like a pro mountain biker. Once you wear them a few times, it feels like your not wearing them at all. When you go downhill or just plain really fast, you can actually feel the air going through the holes in the plastic and through the padding onto your shins. If you get the strap on at the bottom on tightly, it shouldn't move. Also, rock solid. | | Weaknesses: | If you get a ton of mud on the one part that snaps off so that you can take them off, it makes it almost impossible to get off. It takes forever! Other than that, the tags on the inside kinda get annyoing, but you can always cut them off. THEY DON'T COVER THE BACK OF YOUR LEGS! :( | | Similar Products Used: | slide on knee pad, with Fox shin guards. | | Bike Setup: | 05 DK Slugger with a Dirt Jumper 1 bomber | | Bottom Line: | They give you confidence, although I've had a few time when my foot slips off the pedal and it gets me right in the back of the leg. Im really tall (6'4) and the shin guard exposes like 2 inches of my leg near my ankle.....I just wear high socks. These are good shin/knee guards. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
