What body armour to get?

Can anyone recommend any Knee/Shin and Elbow Protectors? Have been looking at getting sixsixone race protectors (not racelite ones) but am wondering if they may be too hot with the foam sock bit ?

Check out www.chainreactioncycles.co.uk - at this time of year you'll get some REAL bargains. Race Face Rally FR leg guards for £39 anyone? Race Face pads regularly get top marks in the magazines - they are comfortable and extremely secure. The leg guards actually sit on top of your foot so they don't slide down. They're great in cold weather too because they keep your knees and shins warm.
Only downer with them is they are a bit sweaty in summer but if you pick and choose when you wear them you shouldn't go far wrong.

make sure they r comfy when you try them on...i brought some and ended up selling them before i have ridden with them because i haved them so much!
(then again, what part of you doesn't get hot and sweaty during the summer? You're gloves, shoes, back, head etc, so is really such a problem?)
Hope this helps.
