These slip ons offer pretty good protection with a half inch of rubber around the knee area, i'm ordering a new pair , gonna use my old ones for work .

I've been using these for 2 seasons now. They're pretty worn out at this point but I'll be buying another pair.

Very similar, I think the Gforms are like 10 bucks less expensive as well... Speaking of which today it is actually cool enough to leave the house with my knee pads on... yay !

Its-like lycra or spandex with a neopreneish pad, kind of a semi hard rubber

Put some new bits on my Levo .

Ohlins coils front and back .
ShiGura with 220 and 200 rotors . GX 12 spd . 36 tooth front ring . Ergon seat and grips . Flat bars and shorter stem .
Ass Guy 2.5 up front . Shimano Saint pedals .

Capable and comfortable .

Did a lap from the top of my hill down town to Babylon today . Bedded in the brakes . Lovin the ShiGura so far . Subtle power .
