I know this has been covered before but search still doesn't work!  I currently have some Bliss protection minimalist knee pads that are fine for general trail riding but there has been a few times lately when it would have been sensible to have a little more protection. The problem is that I am built like a dray horse and struggle to find pads that are comfortable enough for all day use. What pads do others with large legs recommend ? My legs are 42 cm (16.5 in) at the calf and 57cm (22.5 in) at the thigh. Oh yes, try to keep it under £70 ish.

661 Rage Evo, in XL flavour for my chunky knees. Only pads I've managed to find that are a comfy, all-day fit and stay put.
