tried all three...foxx,cramsters & Astars.
foxx are amongst best i think considering cost and size.(very sleek)
astars very nice infact excellent (technologically & protection wise)but too huge
cramsters will scratch u r tank badly bro...have some insulation at contact points.
M just looking at more options before finalising on foxx.

Yeah right, Cramsters are pretty huge. I wore them inside my pants last time! Maybe thats why they're launching a new model. Just wait before you finalize. Could you give me the Fox site address?

Which one from AStar did you try? The Reflex seems good as it offers ample shin protection, more than the others mentioned here.

Astars bionics are the best in terms of protection & coverage.
As for the reflex ones they are good in tight jeans or so but ain't suitable inside formal wear,try them before buying coz it also depends on body type.

@joey :yaa still searching bro...never had problem buying jacket & helmet but this knee guard thing is taxing my brains now
jitna R&D karoge utni pareshani hogi

@r15 -spiderweb from Mumbai has foxx knee guards ,here's the link to the one that i tried

Ohh ok...that may be applicable only to him...!! coz chetan,sumit or NV didnt complain abt this issue...which have been using those knee guards from quite a long time !!

And, i guess DSG is launching a new collection of gloves, jackets and helmets soon...but i dont know that wud be launched by what dates..!! May be Satyajit would be able to help you with that..!!

^^^ Am planning to buy these kneee guards before the Koyna ride...
lets see
NV,Chetan : any reviews ?

[snehmads]

I have been using Astars Reflex every weekend for last 1 year. I am pretty much satisfied soul. I have used them under loose cargos, don't find them loose. Crash-tested them and they saved my right leg in side collision with a Santro.

[chilled_fire]

^^^ Thanks for the info man !I sure dont want to crash test them thou
