    As I prefere to wear hard over jersy armour,I am in the market for some elbow protection, as the last few offs I have had, left very little skin on my elbows and forearms. Who has an opinion on what are good ones?

    I use six-six-one elbow guards with the full mesh to hold them in place. Perfect protection with a little exta arm pump I reckon. Lasted well over the last 3 years, easy cleaning (straight in the washing machine with gear), forearms covered and can go over or under jersey. I usally cut my sleeves off at elbows for keeping cool in Brisbane. Photo attached. n896980186_1972976_7000_1_.jpg

    Mmm the best elbow guards IMO are the ones attached to decent body armour…sorry Mick but i’ve had experience with some standalone one riding up or down and exposing a naked elbow.

    Although I wish some armour had more roost protection built in.

    Thanks guys,I have the 661 armour so I might as well go for the same brand elbow guards.
    The reason I like the hard armour is that when you stop at a pub for instance you don’t have to fully undress to get it off and it also protects your sternum from the big goolies that TB’s XR throws.

    BTW skewes welcome to the site mate.
    Cheers

    what you don’t like getting fully undressed at the pub???? why not

    some people live for that experience.
    actually mick i do know what you mean, mostly in the hotter months here I wear just my pressure suit no jersey or shirt and it is way cool, except maybe a little “oxford street” with the open weave mesh and all:blush: .

    maybe Moto would like some?
