|  I'd definately use something like once I hear some unbiased reviews. I'm almost more concerned about abrasion that impact, though.

| It looks like it only provides impact protection (the CE protectors on the knees, hips and tailbone), but won't protect from road rash. I think I'll stick to my Cordura or Leather riding pants...

| having been hit then run over by a pickup truck while on foot, i fear impacts much more than abrasions. an impact that does not break anything can ruin your month just in recuperating.
