Looks like they're a pretty good fit! Probably would be tempting to ride without the knee pads but don't doit! (unless they're uncomfy..)

I take my kneepads out when I'm going to be doing a lot of walking. If it's mostly sitting in the sadle, I keep them in. Without the kneepads, you still have the kevlar lining to protect from abrasion but lose the impact cushion.

My riding jeans are Brosh but, my next pair will be Draggins.

Can't wait to get another bike and get the draggins...
+1 on the wolf whistle! You're one of very few who can pull those off and still look good :lol:

lol not sure how your kneepads go but nice. as for the tint thing I just throw an extra visor in my saddle bags. Use the clear one to ride to work at night and then when its getting close to summer and the suns out when I get out of work I take the clear one off and put the tinted one on. takes all of about 30 seconds to open the bag get the visor out take the one off put the other on and then put the one back in the bag and shut the bag :D.

I put my kneepads in the pocket from the top before I put the pants on. Then, I adjust them as needed once I have them on and in a sitting position similar to my riding position.

If you have trouble puting them in initially, you could turn them inside out and place them.
