    What kneepads do you lot reccomend?
    I have some Kyle Straits at present but they are a bit bulky and that horrid brown colour.
    Need something a bit slimmer but will manage in the alps this summer!
    As well as everyday trail riding,
    Cheers all

    To be fair, I wouldn’t want to go much slimmer than Kyle Straits. They are not THE best protection as it is(I use them)
    Get some black ones… 🙂
    Unless you get veggie knees, I doubt you’ll get much slimmer and then you may aswell be wearing just your trousers…

    Troy Lee KG 5400s for a nice lightweight and secure knee pad.

    I’ve a pair of Endura MT500s that are almost ‘invisible’…that is I do not know they are on after a couple of minutes.

    Much better than my pair of Dianese knee and shin pads for XC type riding but come into their own an a DH course such a Cwmcarn.

    So, you may need bioh types.

    +1 for the Troy lee’s, very comfy and no slippage, minimal cover on shins though.
