Trials Knee Protection Advise

Featured Replies

661 gel pads. Used them for cycling, trials and enduro and tested against a 4t exhaust. No injury. 5 star product. Wouldn't leave home without them.

Everyone I know uses standard MX style knee pads.  I hit one hard enough to crack the hard plastic on the outside so it seems like a good idea to have it there.

I use the Forcefield ones, very comfy and £75

Good protection too, saved my knees and shins a few times

I use cut down Wulf knee guards with padding and a hard plastic back. Some of this "padding" wont help at all landing on rocks with your weight on it. The hard plastic backing is a must

There was me thinking that trials riders didn't wear protection.

Fox enduro mtb pads are much slimmer than the above ones, I use them. I have both. The bulkier ones will not fit under trials Lycra

Anyone have suggestions for combo knee/shin protections and support?  I have to wear knee support (has aluminum side hinges)for Meniscus issues. I have to prevent any knee twisting or side pressure....but I would also like additional knee cap and shin protection.

 

Sucks getting old, but I'd rather ride with support as needed and a bit of pain during and after than sitting still.
