I thought this would be the best place to ask which shin protection is the best, and where I can buy it. -- koebwil ------------------------------------------------------------------------ koebwil's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11308 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45357 |

Shin Guards
SixSixOne 4x4 Leg armour is great, I just got some. It covers from the bottom of your shin over your knee, and wraps all the way around the back of you legs. 'SixSixOne 4x4 Armor, on sixsixone.com' (http://tinyurl.com/8wwen) 'SixSixOne 4x4 Armor, on unicycle.com ' (http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=404) Other than that, your local bike shop can probably get it in for you, assuming they have other SixSixOne gear instore -Matt -- Matt.Weston ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Matt.Weston's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11149 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45357 |

I started a thread a while back about this. 661 4x4 are your best bet. http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=404 Mike -- swarbrim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ swarbrim's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11005 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45357 |

koebwil wrote: which shin protection is the best I'd use no less than the 'Centurion Hard Shell' (http://tinyurl.com/c9ese) shin guards. Granted, they don't offer much protection for the back of the leg, but you will never have to worry about another pedal bite on your shin... they even provide good foot protection. Same price as the 661's... I'd say give these a go! -- maestro8 Those are my principles.

I prefer to use bare skin as protection. I roll 2" fenceposts up and down my shins to kill nerves. After about 2 weeks of doing 15 rolls per night, pedal bites don't hurt at all. Yeah, there's some blood occasionally, but chicks dig scars. Seriously, 661 and roach are both good. I use KH but they're no longer made. I think 661 is better than the hardshells because of back of calf protection... but then again I don't hit the back of my calf much at all (I think it's been a year or so... knock on wood), so that destinction is unneccessary. -- gerblefranklin http://gallery.unicyclist.com/Trials-Muni Nick's main man.

I am concerned with the back of my legs also. I don't like when I smash my calves. -- koebwil ------------------------------------------------------------------------ koebwil's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11308 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45357 |

Get Six six one shin guards. Everyone i know wears them. the only problem is that if u don't put them on right u can hit the crank on the side. But nothing is perfect. Try em they are fine for me and it keeps ur legs warm in the winter! -- Uni-D3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Uni-D3's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11255 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45357 |
