    Anyone heard of these? If so anyone got any info (website or personal) as just had the last off without knee pads! Need then for tech XC – already ruptured my PCL 3 years ago and havn’t got much normal skin left on my knee caps!

    Tech XC? I’ve never done that, sounds cool. 😉
    Check out 661’s evo/d3o range

    I just didn’t want to say that I fell off doing easy stuff – got to think of my image 😉 LOL (Technical XC) rather than DH or Freeriding etc – I need something that would be very comfy on lon XC rides? Those 661’s look kinda nice and comfy!

    I think you are thinking of the 661 d3o pads, reviews don’t seem to rate them as highly as the Kyle Strait knee pads though.

    Good review here:

    Yup they are the ones – I think they might fir the bill over Kyle Straits as they are more flexible – don’t really need them for puncture resistance more for bruse/flesh protection. Cheers Guys 😉 On next months credit card it is then 😉

    What about comfy flexible knee pads with shin protection too?

    Hmm – yeh the d30 pads seems a little variable on the personal review – and they are pretty expensive – think maybe the KS’s are the way to go!

    I usually mash my knees not my shins otherwise I have got my Raceface knee and shins for that 😉

    Kyle Straits are great, I never really used pads for ‘normal’ riding before but got these and kind of always wear them now. Ok for all day rides, don’t really notice I have them on to be honest.

    May be a little hot in the summer, but what isn’t!?

    Hi Andy – yeh they do sound nice and comfy and anything will be hot in the summer I guess – full knee and shins are very warm I have to say 😉
