I've used the old type while downhill mountainbiking since they first came out and I love them so I wanted to see if they were still around and turns out there's this new type, which they sadly for me shortened at the bottom, the old ones cover the entire shin. About the protection though, mine have taken everything I bashed them against and my knees have come out unscathed. Straight blows into rocks, lengthy slides through rockgardens, all of it. With the outside being hard plastic they have a tendency to not catch on stuff but glide off them a bit instead, if that explanation makes any sense, plus there's a bit of space between the 2 articulating pieces of plastic so the outer can dent in a bit before the inner one has to do anything, my outer plastic one has a few nasty gouges in them, at the edge eventhrough it, but the inner part is still as new
I mean lets be honest a 800€ helmet isnt going to be much better than a 200€ helmet. At some point its just too much money for very little upgrades. I would chose these over any pair of pants every day. 1. Scrapes heal, bones dont, you want to avoid your bones shattering. 2. Take up less space than a good pair of pants with thin d3O 3. It’s literally 50 bucks
I guess they will have to be good enough. With the prices of everything going sky high, I’ll pick food over $600 knee braces for now.

Did he say "underpants" 1:29. Haha, please excuse my childish sense of humor.
Do these stick out, are larger, take up more pant room in the knee area, than the Leatt Dual Axis?
Thanks man
