kour Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 i stumbled off my msuper turning around on a steep hill - to prevent it from crashing down the hill i dug in with my right leg and it bashed my shin... hurt like a mother, and couldn't ride either of my wheels for almost a week (without padding). so now i've still got a bump there, but it's improved and there's no more pain. after that i decided to get shin guards. these are cool because they're super lightweight, only have one strap, and i think are adequate for not-so-serious collisions/stumblings - they definitely would have prevented my injury, as the padding is right where the contusion occurred. https://www.amazon.com/Scott-Grenade-EVO-Shin-Guards/dp/B06Y1CZCQF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circuitmage Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Nice post. I've fallen a few times so far, but seem to always land on my knees. Not sure if I will upgrade to shin guards too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven D Wheeler Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I bought a pair of Fuse shin guards size XXL because I am 6'2". These protect not only my shin but my ankles too! Very good protection. https://www.amazon.com/Fuse-Protection-Alpha-Ankle-Black/dp/B00RN4GD7K/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1512080738&sr=8-1-fkmr1&keywords=fuse+shin+guards+XXL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
