Came in here looking for this to make sure you can do that on those thanks. I currently have Leatt dual axis and if I don't criss cross the bottoms straps they don't hold at all. I don't understand why they don't put a silicon type of coating on the straps to prevent slippage.
I have these. Just have to say they’re extremely Comfortable. For reference I’m 6,2 185lbs. Really long legs I have a Large xL. I’ve got probably 15-20 hours in them. They’re way more comfortable than the old fox knee guards. Pros- comfortable, low profile, solid protection for me personally the thigh strap and calf strap are perfect. I’m able to do multiple motos and have them not move or slide down Cons- I do have a minor gripe with the middle strap. When I first started wearing them I’d tighten it too high up on my leg and when it’d bend itd kind of rub. I do wish the strap was about half the size in width because that way it woudlnt be as broad. Overall tho it was a very minor issue and I’ve been able to learn how to fix it.
These look awesome and are even LV2 Cert, but as I've been comparing these to the Leatt Dual Axis vs The AlpineS SX-1 V2, Which will be the best considering that all 3 kinda fall in the same price bracket & I'm looking for something for Trails/Enduro. Plus, I've heard issues with Fox titan Pro's poor built/stitching & durability too. What about that? Which one to go for ?
@@theindianexperience3075 so i dont know anything about the other brands you mentioned, however i can speak for these and just say the quality and durablity is just fine. the straps are very strong and the armor itself is very strong for what it is. ive got alot more hours in them know and i ride moto primarily but ive had a couple decent crashes and walked away just fine w no damage to them. they fit so well for me too id go as far and say FOR WHAT THEY ARE theyre a solid 9.5 out of 10 and id reccommend them to anybody who was thinking about getting them. comfortable and low profile while still offering really good protection. only thing holding them back is the price in my opinion

I've put about 1000 miles on an EUC, with a couple falls thrown in that time frame. The latches, velcro, and general build quality has held together quite well. Only complaint is a minor squeak in one of the knee hinges
It's true. Mine have all broken at the knee hinge. It's a horrendously weak design with just a small piece of plastic stopping the rivet from busting loose. Mine broke just sitting down to take them off.
I've had nothing but bad experiences with these guards. The engineering and design at the knee pivot points is horribly weak. I wouldn't recommend anyone buying these. If you move the knee padding back slightly, you can see where the rivet is held by a very thin piece of plastic around the slot. These break super easy. Mine broke just sitting down to take them off. Never crashed and mostly used for commuting. They are super comfortable, but they will break at some point early in their life.
I just ordered these same knee guards. My old Fox knee guards were beat up from a major crash and they did their job.
Try criss-crossing the bottom straps in an "X" pattern like a catchers shin guards. It helps to prevent them from slipping. Great guard though.

I like the mobius knee braces. They fit and work for me for trail off-road riding.
Same but i do motocross
Very thorough & concise review. Thanks for the info!
Do the straps stretch, or are they rigid like most braces?
You could have shown how they fit knees... This way we can only guess how they actually fit the knees
Exactly

A score out of 10 ??? Thanks Vital mx
Hi,how do I fix the knee pads so that they don't slide off the knees?

Just ordered my fox titan pros lastnight looking forward to having better protection while on my electric scooter

Good review! How about the HEAT? Did you sweat and bake in these?
Definitely not. Well ventilated even for low speed off-road riding.
My biggest complaint on their last model was a metal pivot pin, scratched everything including my tank 😒
Not sure they resolved that..
Many Reviews say that those braces break very easily, is that true?
It's true. Mine have all broken at the knee hinge. It's a horrendously weak design with just a small piece of plastic stopping the rivet from busting loose. Mine broke just sitting down to take them off.
Is it Level 2 ?? thanks
No level CE level 1
Does not stay in place , slides down your leg , especially when walking .
