Tourmaster Quest pant just arrived $75!
And I'm impressed. They were cheap as heck from ironpony $75 or so. I got 3 shirts a hat and these pants from them all for under $100 and I ordered it two days ago. Love this site. ANYWAY I like these, I haven't tried them on the bike yet, but the CE knee armor and the thickness of the 600D nylon seriously makes me wonder if the Joe Rocket company lied to me on the UFO 2.0 jacket I have. It just feels as if it would provide much more protection than the stuff on the jacket. Standing up the knee armor is a good 6 inches below my knees (I bought a 34-36, I'm 150lbs and 6'4) but I'm sure it will fit better when I'm on the bike. So if your budget is more important that heat comfort (like me) go for em!

The knee armor is adjustable, you can move it up.

I couldn't adjust the armor enough on the Tourmaster Flex pants I ordered during initial gear-up, so I bought Joe Rocket mesh instead, which can't zip to my Flex jacket (LOVE the jacket!). That said, even my Joe Rocket pant's knee armor will ride below your knee when standing and even when sitting but they usually align just right when sitting on the bike, so I'd like to give the Tourmaster ones another shot.

Ha I'm starting to wish mine were mesh. I like the protection though. Funny story, when sit on the bike the armor is too high lol so i'm putting them on the lowest setting again.
