SixSixOne Kyle Strait Knee Guard
By BikeRadar
The Kyle gives great joint protection. (BikeRadar©.)
Everyone raved about these, even XC guides who just used them in winter for warmth.
The removable patella plate and thick neoprene padding give superb joint protection. They're super mobile for uninterrupted pedalling and the twin straps give good security, even if you end up on your hands and knees at speed. Your knees will get sweaty if you don't wash them regularly and obviously you'll need shin guards if you want lower leg protection. They're not cheap either, but we can definitely see why everyone likes them.
