I have the same elbow and knee guard...the flexibility is just awesome...just did a 800km journey...they were just perfect in terms of fitting and safety.

PS: I bought these for 1450rs. in delhi

Yes, the flexibility is superb. Even I have done a single day 500km journey yesterday with it.
by the way, Are you wearing them inside your trousers?? Yesterday I was wearing the knee guard inside a 6 pocket trouser (The knee guard was too tight inside the jeans. So, didn't wear it inside one of them). And some hair like scratches on the tank has appeared due to this knee guard.

FYI- While riding I pressed the knee very hard against the tank very hard several times to see if the guard scratches the tank.

may i ask where exactly in delhi did you buy them?

I bought them from Chopras, karol bagh.
If you want colors like red or blue..there is another shop in karol bagh too...if interested lemme know I'll let you know the details.

these guards are bionic ones i.e. you have to wear it outside your trousers...it will be very stiff if you wear it inside coz of the knee flexibility.
I'm having p200..so for the entire journey I noticed that I'm not touching the tank...BTW you can use a matching stickers on the side of your tank that can save the scratches

Are you talking about the one in the pic below. I have a blue one, goes well with my blue R15, the problems I find is the armor in the jacket is not adjustable and the ventilation is also not that good, once the summers start I am doubtful it can be used. I got it for 5400/- bucks.

Hey guys i am thinking of going in for a jacket for riding.
My budget is 5-6 k and i dont want dsg-spike and stuff (too common imho)
What would you guys suggest?
i was thinking of getting one of these :-
www.OutdoorTravelGear.com - PROTECTIVE RIDING ACCESSORIES

The riding aromor + pants

What do you guys think?

Dude..why do you want to go in for only the Armour..invest that amount in a Jacket na..!! That would look cool too..

And, instead of that pants(for 4400/-) get the AlpineStar knee guards only for 2100/-

Hey inder my thinking was that it gets hot in bombay so only armor would be cool and the pants also have thigh protection and all...

Oye the price of those pants is 1900/- and the price of the armor is 4400/-
I think 1900/- would be a bargain right?

But then you would have to wear the whole armour inside your t-shirt..!! And those pants dont provide protection at thighs yaar...its just a small foam piece..

Oye the price of those pants is 1900/- and the price of the armor is 4400/-
I think 1900/- would be a bargain right?

Ohh haan...my mistake..!!

If you get a mesh jacket (like Breezer from Cramster @4k) .... it would work out better than the armour in terms of usage and look.

Those pants are a shot to the brain I tell you.... wear them and see .

Cramster Breezer&DSG Maze both are discontinued.

What do you mean by 'Those pants are a shot to the brain'? Are they good or bad? Cramster also has pants, a little pricey at Rs. 4300 though!

Cramster Breeze is still available (@4k after discount...till stocks last) @ Mumbai.

I mean... they are not so comfortable while wearing and removing .... I have tried wearing them.... made of lycra material.... but very unfeasible wearing, and the quality is not upto the mark.
