When I use my E-scooter to commute, I slide on a cheap pair of knee pads, elbow pads, and wrist guards, but over time they are starting to fall apart. Any recommendations on a decent protective gear including slim knee pads that I can wear under my slacks?
I’d rather not wear them over the pants since they wrinkle the clothing.
How fast are you going?
~20mph. It’s an older ninbot max.
187 Killer Pads would probably do the trick but FYI they also sell pants that support protective inserts if you wanted to go a different route. Your weight is also a factor, the more you weigh the more substantial padding you’d want because force = mass x acceleration
