    Helmet - What ever fits properly. Head on over to your LBS and try on as many as you can. The Fox Rampage, Bell Drop, Giro Remedy, 661 Strike and Specialized Deviant all fit in to your budget, but make sure it fits properly.

    Gloves - Personal choice, what ever fits well and feels comfortable for you, i personaly find sombrio make decent gloves, but it might be different for you.

    Pads - If you want soft pads i'd look at 661 kyle straits [knee] and chicken wing [elbow] if you want a hard shell, look at the 661 race guards.

    Multitool - Top Peak alien or anything by crank brothers always gets good reviews.
