I am in serious need of leg protection. I sliced my whole shin open this evening with my pedal spikes. I’m looking at purchasing these. http://www.blueskycycling.com/product121_24_-661-4x4-Knee-Shin-Guards.htm
Take a look. Should I get medium size, or large. I’m exactely 6’ tall with longer legs. Imput would be appreciated. If someone thinks I should get something else def say so.
those are what i have. i think i have large. they work great but i only use em for bc’ing and unispins. im like over 6’ so theyll be fine dude.
ive got those. recieved them today from that company. they have pretty good service. definitly large, i had to return them cuz i got the wrong size but the larges are great
pretty standard. most people use them and love them. myself included.
I ride with fuse shin pads… they r more of a street pad I guess… but 661’s do own I think Ima get some haha
Hi,
I bought the same when i started learning the unispin, it was a compulsory. For pedals hits (in front) it just do its work very well.
But yesterday i landed on my shin (protected) a 2m gap onto the edge of a bench. I opened my skin by 5cm and it hurt so much. I don’t want to imagine, if i had not wore it. Hopefully i can ride today, and i am decided to take my revenge on this bench.
The thing is, if you are planing to get into trial, the pedals won’t be your first concern anymore and protection with a plastic cup like these one would be the best:
