Strengths:
- Seems as though they are quite durable - Hard shell got for hard impacts - Dirt cheap
Weaknesses:
- Tend to slide down the leg easily unless extremely tight - Not a lot of coverage on the sides and bottom of shins
Similar Products Used:
None
Bike Setup:
Transition Preston
Bottom Line:
These aren't the most comfortable things around and they don't stay in place very well. But if you want the cheapest option to protect your shin and knees then go for it.
