  1. After repeated shin scrapes with my ridiculous new pedals(came with Onza
    24 inch MUni), I have deemed it necessary to purchase some protection.
    However I am having difficulty finding shin pads with wrap-around
    protection that fit within my budget of around $30. Does anyone have any
    suggestion as to where I can look, or specific models I can try?
    Thanks...

    These have protected my leg from many a scar...

    Ironicly, the 1st time I wore them with shorts (got 'em at x-mas) they
    scarred me through chaffing, so I wear them backwards, with the
    "sixsixone" logo on the inside of my leg...

    Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total
    obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and
    through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
    its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
    remain.

  5. I replaced my 661's with Roach Rally FR pads. The change was due to a
    superman fall that I took with the 661's. When my knees hit the ground
    they slid out of the pads and scraped on a rock. The Roach pads have
    hard plastic on the knees and shins and are more likely to slide when
    making contact with the ground keeping my knees inside of the pads where
    they belong.

    The 661's had served me well up until that point.
