I recently bought the 3/4 version of Enduras singletrack shorts after using the standard ones for the last few years but since discovered they really dont fit to well over my 3 year old Kyle Strait knee pads so I'm contemplating either new shorts (the wife would kill me) or asking here to find out if anyone is using a similar combo and if so which knee pads they are using.

The stiching is going a bit on my pads so had considered the 661 Evo as they look slimmer or Enduras own pads, which I would hope fit!!!

Anyone using their 3/4 shorts and knee pads????????

    I bought a set of those shorts, and to be honest, I can;t be bothered with them at all. the fit is terrible, and the legs are far too narrow. I find that they're constantly riding up because they're just the right size to "grip" my thighs.
    No idea who they were designed to fit, stickmen, maybe.
    ditch the shorts, get something baggier.

    Now I have to start a "what 3/4 shorts" thread ;)

    Me I think :D

    The Endura Humvees are baggier and may be a better bet, the Singletracks aren't exactly roomy on me and I've got pretty thin legs, but the Humvees definitely have a bit more room.

    Might have to pop down to Stif cycles with my knee pads on and try some different shorts :)

    I have singletracks and 661 Evos and they're fine for me. I'm tall with fairly slim legs though (but no lightweight). What size are the shorts as if yuo want to selll them I might be interested.

    They are mediums and only worn twice. Think I may look at the evo pads first though as I do like the cut of the singletracks
