steve@banbury-trials Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 gloves and helmet .thinking bout ankle and shin guards though,what recommendations do you guys have for shin guards?steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 (edited) Hmn I was just thinking about digging out my old football shin pads, they would protect against shin digs, and they have ankle support which is a bonus I guess.Have a look round for football shinpads, probably much cheaper than bike ones.

sUm Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Helmet is all you'll ever needTell that to the 10 stitches worth of cuts in both of my shins . I wear shins pads, gloves, and a helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Gah, after what I did yesterday I want pads that extend over my knees now. I twatted my knee against my stem, stung like a bitch for the rest of the day, and any contact with it and the stem (no matter how light of a touch), had me rolling around the floor in pain.Worst thing was that as soon as I hit my knee into my stem, I sat down on my non existent seat.

Drew92 Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Hi, I wear 661 shin/knee pad combined, mace trials gloves and I am in the process of getting a decent helmet. I used to bmx a lot and if i have very good pedals on my bmx but they kept on spinning and hitting me in the shins, i even had blood bubbles on my shins so i now make sure i wear shin pads for any type of riding!!! Its better to be safe than unprotected!Drew92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
