Help me choose moto pants
Hey all,
I decided to buy an all season pants for short distance commuting and grocery store runs (I wear leather race suit for all other kinds of riding riding). I have shortlisted the Telluride, Zurich and Sliders pants. Does anybody own any of these pants or have any feedback / suggestion to share? I am tending towards the Sliders as its mesh (better than jeans in the summer) and has water proof + thermal liners for cold weather. If you have suggestions for any other pant I will appreciate it as well. Thanks! |

The only brand I've heard of out of the 3 is agv sport. I personally use teknic supervent mesh pants for the daily grind. http://www.revzilla.com/product/tekn...ent-mesh-pants
I would recommend them to you but teknic has gone under and they will be hard to find. My girlfriend uses dainese new drake air pants and she's had a get off with them and they held up well. Of course the sky is the limit depending on your budget. |

Thanks Rich!
I heard Scorpion and Icon also make good mesh pants. I might check them out too. |

SLIDERS!!!! Oh my god go Sliders....3 crashes and they have never let me down. They also blend in quite well and don't stick out like most moto jeans.
Btw they are the best protection per dollar I've worn out of all the brands I've tried. They are a bit warm in the summer months, but keep you warm in the fall months. |
