great protection but hot
Like the protection compared to my cheaper kneeguard. Feel that they are worth the cost but keep in mind they are hot and need something (like cut up sock) behind the velcro on thigh as it started to rub after a long day's ride.

Love 'em, but kinda hot
The force knee guards are a nice alternative to the cheaper, thinner pads, yet don't cost as much as a full sports-style knee brace. It falls nicely in the middle. The articulation is good and they're comfortable minus some strap irritation on the back of the thigh. Some knee-guard 'socks' will solve this. The main concern is for those who ride in hot conditions. They have an almost neoprene feeling material that covers the back of the guard which can get hot. I used them in 90 degree weather and that's about as hot as I'd run 'em. Overall I'm impressed, especially at the price.

Be careful
There are pivots on each side of the knee guard. These should be called knee braces because that's how they're made. The pivots are eating through my mx pants and scratching the heck out my tank. Some kind of cover over the pivots would probably fix that.

Excellent Choice
The best Kneeguards I can get!
Perfect protections, very comfortable.
Pros: Easy to use, very strong material,
Cons: A little expensive, You probably need some clothes behind the kneeguards because the velcro itches.

Thor Force Kneeguards
I highly recommend them and do not ride or feel safe without them anymore. Wish I had them in my office when I tripped over the phone cord.

These knee guards are a far cry from the cheap old knee guards I used to wear. They give me a new found confidence just knowing that my knees and shins are protected more. They feel very comfortable and with the help of a knee brace sock like the Fox knee brace sock they fit and stay in place all day. Definitely recommend these for cost and protection.

first real knee guards i've owned
They feel really comfortable except that the Velcro closures can get a little irritating around the corners where they rub on my leg. They feel solid and sturdy.

Works great, lasts a long time!
My 16 year old son rides a dirt bike cross country. These are light yet offer good knee and shin protection. Works great and lasts a long time!

Good guards
My knees feel pretty protected with these guards. They do chafe a bit above the back of the knee. Overall a good fit though when you consider the protection they give. My previous guards were $20 cheapos so I don't have another good pair to compare them to.
