Hi
If got a KDX which I enjoy messing with, but as I have low levels of skill and am accident prone, I've decided to get better protection than my adventure kit, but know nothing about MX or enduro type protection.
Also, as I was on a few months lockdown due to a back op (3 vertebrata fused) and then we had Covid-19 lockdown, being self employed has made money scarce.
So I'm looking for reasonable quality without breaking the empty bank.

- Keeping this in mind, what are essential?
- Boots, chest protector, elbow and knee guards?
- are there different sizes for chest protector? or are they just adult?
- what brands should I stay away from? and why? (I'd rather save for a few months to get the right thing than something that won't protect me, yet I need it ASAP)
- what online shops are the best
- are excellent second hand units out there? or will they be well used by the time the guys sell them?
- do you have brand new stuff you not using and want to donate? eepwall:
