Mk3's look very very good though and they apparently work amazingly

using a set of mk3s myself, better than any other tiresock etc i've used, but i've managed to rip chunks out of them (i'm pretty tough on hooves though, can kill a set of 7s feet in just over a month)

definately worth the cost for hoofies

PJ ones would be cheapest, but a decently padded kneebar setup works jsut as well if not better

PJ's are good, but for hand made and quality PinHeads are the way. He puts time and effort in, there about £40 but are so worth it, i cant afford them yet though so cant give proper opinion :p

actually my peronal experience is that kneebars are better than cuffs, but i've sorted mine to be comfy and fit my legs, and haven't really bothered with cuffs caus ethey're too much hassle, plus i can't stand anythign pressed agains teh back of my leg where the cuffs go

Post by: Haydndj on August 16, 2009, 12:53:07 AM

ohh lol, well how do you make the bar more confy? coz mine is killing me!

Title: Re: Jason's tyre socks, and hood replacement's
Post by: dark-castles2 on August 16, 2009, 12:55:17 AM

Killing you? wow your knee bars are mean!

Title: Re: Jason's tyre socks, and hood replacement's
Post by: darfgarf on August 16, 2009, 12:57:19 AM

insulation foam round the kneebars, tape over that, quick release straps, wear tubigrips underneath

the alternative is wear knee/shinguards (the ombined type) unde the bars

they are indeed  :Claugh: naughty little things, one i got so sweaty whilts wearing my jeans when i took my jeans off, there were particles of the jeans stuck onto my leg where the knee bar rested

Wow DG never thought of the tubigrip :) thanks

i'm just a walking genius aren't i XD

though how i do it sacrifices all knee protection, but seeing as i only wear wristguards, and elbows if flipping onto mats it doesn't affect me much
