I've been looking at quite a few, I'll probably order a pair of Troy Lee Designs Lopes Knee Guards off CRC unless anyone advises anything else...

Ideally, will be using them for singletrack, last trip to Wales, I got too excited on the DH sections and fell off, as usual, got a nice pedal cut on my shin/knee so Looking for some comfortable protection that is lightweight enough so you can do climbs etc... as not all singletrack is DH!

Anyone got these and are they as good as the reviews suggest? - I don't usually listen to many reviews because people who own stuff usually rave about it because they spent money on it and want it to be good even if its not!

Cheers.
