Protège-genoux Elevate

The knee guards look the part, the quality feel is OK. They are comfortable enough for some pedaling, but I prefer to have them in my backpack and put them on for descents/ tricky bits of trail. Having said that, I wouldn't recommend falling too hard with them as they won't save you from nastier injuries. They are definitely helpful to avoid the usual cuts and bruises from low speed blunders though and I wore them to get used to clipless pedals - they come in handy when you can't get your foot out of the pedal fast enough and fall on your side. They cover some of the upper shin region, too, and with some luck the pins of your pedals hit the guards and not your skin. Good product! For more protection, you'll need heavier gear...
