Alpinestars Men’s Nucleon Flex Plus Motorcycle Elbow Protector, Black, Large

I have all sorts of armor I have gathered over the years, I have three generations of sastech armor, klim d30, cortech stuff, the soft sas-tech stuff that comes in the 1909, the cheap foam stuff, just a huge pile of armor… These are my absolute favorite elbow pads, note they make horrible knee pads though they scrunch up and need constant readjustment because they are too soft. I ride in a fairly form fitting cortech leather jacket as well as a kilamanjaro in the rain I have the nucleon elbow protectors in the cortech and I move my nucleon knees to the kilamanjaro elbows the knee and elbow pads are barely different. They are slim nearly undetectable and I truly believe they will add significant protection in a fall. I have the tripleflex scorpion armor in the shoulders it’s amazingly thin but I don’t put much faith in it in a fall the long and short of it is I wouldn’t wear shoulder pads if they were anything other than nearly nonexistent like those bads are so that’s what’s on there I don’t think they’ll do much though. Elbow pads I believe are probably the most important pads next to a back protector and these are my favorite elbows. Wouldn’t use nucleon anywhere else though.
