Suggestions Please
This might appear as a naive question but important to me and I can't decide so asking you all, please suggest.

I want to buy a knee-guard. Now I can't decide between 2 products of Cramster. So plz suggest which one should I go for.

One option is the simple sa knee protector (Outer wear)

and the other option is

Armoured Lycra Pants (Inner wear)

Cramster: India's first premium bike luggage (saddlebags tankbags) and riding gear (Jackets Gloves)

Plz checkout the pics and suggest, if possible with advantages and disadvantages.

Thanks in advance.

knee protector.

Lycra pants become stuff you wear only on rides. The knee thingie can be worn even on short rides. More flexibility basically.

Actually if you are sure that you can wear it often, riding pants are much-much better has they usually have protection for butt as well.

Re: Suggestions Please
The knee guard is US$ 65 on their site i.e. Rs. 3200, how come it is available so cheap here? Something doesn't sounds right.

Yes I know that, I have already checked the price and saw the product there too. I didnt find anything suspicious, the seller says he imports straight from china. Cant say about the product, has to be checked personally before buying. I just tried to give an idea.

Setu, that's a pretty good idea and they look sexy. But I'm in Kolkata

Anyone planning to head to Karol Bagh soon to check them out??? If you think you can take a little burden then I can deposit the sum+courier charges in you bank a/c. Plz get one for me.
