Knee pads.
Just bought a HG tricky 2 jacket and trousers.
I find the knee pads end up below your knees. Have I bought a size too big or are they like this? |

Re: Knee pads.
Are they like this when on the bike? Mine tend to drop a bit if i'm walking, but with boots and in the saddle, they're ok.

Re: Knee pads.
They may feel like that, but then on the bike be in the right place- mine feel low till my knees are bent.

Re: Knee pads.

Re: Knee pads.
on my elbows?!
Fine on and off the bike, standing the top of the pad is on line with the knee, on the bike the knee is cupped by the pad. Just feels right on or off the bike |

Re: Knee pads.
BTW I think they are adjustable, somewhat, on vertical alignment.

Re: Knee pads.
depends how tight the suit fits, a tight suit will hold the protection in place, loose trousers and the knee cups will drop.
