Anyone know if the 3/4's will fit over knee protection?... I ride kyle straits or raceface rally fr's depending on the adventure.
They look pretty narrow at the knee so was wondering if I'd be better off with the shorts version??

Was gonna get the Endura eVent 3/4's but crazy expensive and now seem rare as rockin' horse poopie.
Anyone got any other recommendations?

They do- tried and tested with Kyle Strait pads. Velcro adjusters at the bottom of the leg.

They do but I don't like the effect much, quite noisy and occasionally they rub a bit over the pad- it's not quite snagging, it doesn't stop me pedalling but it just feels slightly annoying. So I got a pair of the short shorts to wear with kneepads, very happy with that.

Cool, U got plenty of room round the knee with the straits on then?
My rally fr's are a bit chunkier so...?

Do you mean the waterproof ones?

If so yes, and they have a velco adjustment thing on the bottom of the legs so you can change the size of the opening.
