Armour

I'm surprised you don't know this but I use Icon leg armor. I've had three get offs using it with zero leg damage. I highly recommend it! In fact, I took the crappy armor out of my nylon pants/ jeans and use the Icon instead. Pants, not leathers, tend to be looser and I can easily see the armor being deflected (high/low or left/right)at first impact. Plus the Icon stuff covers much more of the knee area than built in armor. Which puts it in my boots making it basically impossible for it to be "out of position" in a crash. For $60 it's well worth it to me!
