Knee Pad Advice

Crazyjenkins01

Morning Guys,

Looking at getting a pair of decent knee pads.
Have been thinking of 661 or nukeproof as a starting point.
Anyone got any suggestions for a decent pad that's not too pricey, fairly lightweight and good to pedal but a bit more substantial than tissue?

TIA

Crazy

Any others?

Ones that fit...

I'm in the market for pads but I'm more rampaging rhino than racing snake and most don't fit my rugby player's legs very well.

I've got 661 rage pads. Fine for downhill but too warm for covering any miles

Thanks guys.

I'm not a real racer, but i do sweat just from looking at the bike let alone riding it!

What do you guys think of the Scott Soldier 2s?

I tried a pair on Tuesday and they seemed pretty nice

Did you get any pads sorted?

I've just got a pair of IXS Flow Knee Pads and they're brilliant, they don't move around and you hardly notice that they are there, plus they are really well ventilated. Luckily I haven't had any crashes but am certain they would do a good job when needed.

Thanks for the input Vulva

Another vote for trail skins here. Comfortable for pedalling in, good protection and not too sweaty.

Got myself the Soldier II pads after Christmas as nobody got them for me (grrrrrr) haven't had a chance to use then yet but have got a night race on Saturday so might try them then.
