I'm fed up with uncomfortable, bulky body armour and considering either of these.

Does anyone own these or have any experience of them? Obviously they offer less protection than a pressure suit or similar, but better than not wearing any I would think?! I'm also interested to know how they size up? I usually wear a size L pro pressure suit.
what are you wearing it for, looks good for pedalling unless it's warm.
g-form knee and elbow pads brilliant
I only use armour for DH and then only on rocky tracks. Last week I did a couple of days at Antur Ffestiniog which is just rock and then a couple of days uplift which is also rocky. No crashes, but I sweated like hell on the uplifts.
no spine protection on those but this looks nice, but pricier
