Hi all,

I currently own a pair of Endura Humvee Trousers and they are really comfortable to wear whilst riding the bike. I’m thinking about replacing them as they’re starting to look worn out for either a pair Endura MT500 Spray, or MT500 Burner or Single Tracker Trouser II. Just wondering what the difference is for the different fits.

Each one says they are kneepads compatible. I currently own a set of POC Kneepads and they are quite chunky. Just wondering if they are likely to fit and the skinnier looking versions, i.e. the MT 500s.

Many thanks in advance!

I don't have the Humvee pants but I have the Spray Trousers. I've worn them with knee pads before. Which POC knee pads do you have? I can check the fit with a similarly-sized pad if you'd like.

Hi! Thanks for you quick reply! I have the POC VPD2 knee pads, the same ones on the linky below. They’re quite chunky!

Joint VPD 2.0 MTB Knee Pads

Hard riding sometime results in hard falls and the POC Joint VPD 2.0 Knee Pads offer the perfect protection from knocks and tumbles. The form fitting VPD 2.0 material hardens upon impact, but moves with the body while pedalling, making the Joint Knee Pads some of the most comfortable you can...

These size large Leatt pads look to be about the same size as yours. The Spray trousers have a little room around the knee and it feels comfortable. The fabric behind the knee is elastic. I have the pad on my right knee only:

Thank you very much for sending those pictures. That’s a big help! I think I may order the spray and feel confident that they will fit over the top of my kneepads. They are a nice looking trouser, and less material around the bottom of the leg to get caught in the drivetrain!

Thank you very much again!
