Title: Knee Pads
Post by: Willbar on August 23, 2009, 11,32:55 AM
Can any one suggest a basic knee pad which is available in xxlarge size and is super comfy but still offering good protection. Sorry no need for hinged or shin protection etc.

Will,

I've got a set of O'Neill Revolver knee guards I'm not using.  They have a hinged/pivot arangement, but are not a brace.  I have worn them once.  I can bring them to the meeting on Wednesday if you want to have a look at them.

I know some use the gardening knee pads available from bunnings.  Not sure how well they stay put but probably good for a direct hit.

I am using the Delkevic/EVS brace which is a cheap end brace, after a few rides it wore in well and now very good.  Feels strange riding without them.

Also have an old pair of knee guard which I will try to remember to bring along for you to try.
