Body protection for a chunky monkey
« on: April 11, 2011, 04:23 PM »
I've taken the plunge and got hold of a n/s bike and I need some knee/shin and elbow/forearm protection.

I like the look of the 661 stuff and just wondered if any other sizable chaps out there use their stuff and if it fits ok?

or can anyone recommend owt  :daumenhoch:
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

I use 661 knee/shin protectors, can't remember what they're called. They are really good but the biggest size was Large and they are a tight fit on me. You are welcome to try them for size or borrow them at Leeds as I'll just be wearing football shinpads myself.

The 661 stuff is really good, but as mentioned sizing's a bit on the small side as far as the shin gaurds go.
Do you grovel to your master? Do you beg like a dog?
