Hi all.

I've just started doing a few jumps and mucking about on drop offs, I started in SPDs, but have moved to flats. I've not had an off yet but thought i'd invest in some knee protection before I do!!

I'm looking for knee and shin protection as I don't think the pins on my flats will get on well with my shins.

i am only planning on wearing them for 'playing' and not for bigger rides, and I want to keep around the £50 mark if possible, so what are my best options please?

Google searches (recommendations) are bringing up things a little out of budget or without shin protection.

Thank you in advance.

Chriss

    I'm looking for the same and trail skins keep popping up. I did find some nuke proof ones, which get pretty good reviews for about the same price.
    I bought some heavy duty ones last January, but they are far too much for my riding, you could literally fall off a cliff and your legs would be fine :mrgreen:
