Right been out twice with my new 661 rage pads and farely pleased with them
Pros
Good knee protection (covers front & sides of knee nicely)
Hard wearing material
Fit (most items full off me as i'm a small build but these seam fine with lots of strap adjustment)
Does not move around (even though i hardly use the velcro strap to lock in place)
Comforable that you don't notice them (most important, other wise you would not wear them)
Con
Bulky looking
Still warm so can get a bit sweaty
Have to mud leg through rather than strap on to knee
I agree, I wore them properlly for first time the other day at danbury and rode from South Woodham Ferrers and felt fine, very comfy even on a long ride, dont feel like they are going to slip/move.
Do look bulky, but have hard shell, (Ive got 661 Veghgie Hart & Huntingdon - alot thinner should I want thinner ones.
Got the 661 Riot Elbow too, in M, a bit tight on my skinny arms !...I initially strapped em up well and lost feeling a bit in my hands....So I'd say L would suit most people.
