6 months
Price Paid:
$23.00
Strengths:
Relatively inexpensive
Weaknesses:
I had the straps as tight as I could get them around my leg and the pads still fell down. The knee cup doesn't have a strap so it's just floping around when you ride.
Bottom Line:
Not worth buying, or dealing with trying to sew on a strap yourself. Spend $10 more and find a pair that has a strap for the knee.

Bottom Line:
addition to my previous post; they do fall down your legs, but if you buy a strap of semi-think elastic and sew it onto the flaps on the sides of the knee protectors, the knee cups dont flail around everywhere

Denver Spoke
Strengths:
Good Price
Weaknesses:
To really work, you need to do some mods.
Bike Setup:
Lenz Sport Brawler
Bottom Line:
To really get the hot setup, cut all the stiching out of the knee cup. Don't cut any of the material. Use the pads only as a shin gaurd. Then buy a set of pro-tec skateboard knee pads. Tuck the material from the where the knee pad was under the pro-tec pads. You will have the hottest setup on the hill. A DH racer will love this combo. This has worked for me for two solid years of DH racing.
