Alpinestars Bionic Freeride Shorts - 7,750.00Rs

I read a review by an user a few months back, could be in XBhp, don remember.. According to the user he was very happy with the product and I remember him saying he din wear a pant over this actually. He used this with some quality knee guards & ankle shoes and said it made a good riding gear for the lower part of the body

Hi Guys,

I wanted to have an idea about the cost of AXO Knee & Elbow Guard, as i was surfing through many web sites and they all had different price quotes.

AXO Knee guards, and any knee guards you purchase online you'll have different prices at different sources, mostly rule out eBay and any unknown sources because it's all fake.

Excessive price quote doesn't mean its original, but then looking out for a valid source and making a purchase would always help.

I guess I haven't read any reviews from xBhp of it so far, but then check out the online reviews of this bionic stuff, I guess this would be clumsy to wear at work environment, but then for touring and riding on weekend this should be perfect fit.

Cheers!

True! but then again any idea about the cost of the same so that I have an idea about the same. I am badly stuck with work even on weekends so can't go and check for myself.

I shall be really obliged if someone could help me regarding the same.

Why do you really want the AXO

Since you are in Mumbai - go to A2Z motorcycle superstore (so much for a name!) in Mulund. They have a few knee guards in stock.

But I would really suggest you hike your budget a bit and go for ones that you can be sure are genuine. Take a look at the THOR Sector\A* Bionics etc.
This link will have the details performanceracing.in

Thanks guys. Wearing it inside Jeans is the only criteria for me. Well check it out. I am going to use it for weekend rides only.

Anybody has any experience with Motorcycle Closeouts ? I am planning to buy shift enforcer knee/ shin guards. They are selling at $ 14.95 on motorcycle superstore and bikebandit but $ 9 on this one

Motorcycle Closeouts is a very good site. I have got a lot of stuff from them and never had any issues. A+.

As I mentioned a few pages back, I need to buy waterproof pants having knee guards/armour attached. Is there any option apart from the Rjays? My budget is 6500 max. Rjays doesn't have my size in stock. I need to make the purchase within 2 days.

He has also mentioned about where you can source it from.
You might want to PM him for more details.
Hope this helps .

Hi Friends

Tried searching the threads for reviews of DSG Nero, DSG Triton & Cramster Breezer 4.0.

I basically need an all weather jacket, so which one would be the best.

Any other jacket under Rs 7000, with CE approved armours are also welcome by me. (pl do not suggest Alpine star, which has a foam based padding for back, hence the jacket as a whole with armour will cost me around 9K or more)

All valuable suggestions are welcome

regards

Remember DSG Nero, Triton and Cramster all have back protection as foam, but not a CE approved one. At least 90% of all jackets come with foam as their back protector as a CE approved (accessory) which you need to pay a few hundreds extra.

That said, all the shoulder, elbow protectors come with CE approved in 100% of branded jackets out there. So make a wise decision upon your need.

Be it A* DSG whatever it is. Being an all-weather, I'd suggest Cramster should be the best bet at that price.

Thanks Friend!

I had my mind for Breezer 4.0, which is outa stock, so inclined for Nero.

What you say should i wait till maybe june first week to get myself a Breezer? Thing is I got a tour planned from Bhubaneshwar to Lucknow starting 1st June, so need jacket by 29th may latest.
