Riding Gear that SUCKS

Anything Joe Rocket is ..."okay".... for a little while, while it lasts, but doesn't last long.

Fieldsheer - when I worked at a shop, we had so much FS crap come back ripped, broken, what-have-you. The only good stuff they make is the Adventure pants/jacket, which are actually decent quality.

Icon helmets. Crap.

Same with HJC (A concussion from a soft 15mph crash?? No thanks, not again.)

KBC is only marginally better

Basically, it boils down to "you get what you pay for"... usually the more expensive, the better it'll hold up, and for longer.
