Looking for some guidance. Primarily a roadie and newish CX racer, I recently picked up mountain biking which I really enjoy. I’m 46 and have no interest in high speed downhill or taking big risks on the trail. Nonetheless, today I had an unspectactular low speed crash due to user error and banged up my left knee and elbow pretty good.
So, my question is - is it worth getting knee and elbow pads ? I’m assuming they would have helped. I’m thinking lightweight and comfortable for the type of riding I do And i should also mention that I’m in Austin and the trails around here are pretty rocky. Any suggestions on what to look for?
Thank you.
