The Linesman Pant is undergoing CE certification right now. We hope to have it on sale later this year. It will include knee and hip armour (removable) and will be over the boot. :-)
I live in Sweden and ride bicycle to work all year. Would this work for winter riding? It is usually around +/- 5 degrees Celsius with a lot of wind and rain.
Not much use in the UK…with lots of road sections really need proper gloves…and actually illegal in France and Spain where CE is mandatory…so don’t ride with these on public roads sections of the TET !
I have used these in UK Summer, Autumn and Winter. On the coldest days (sub zero Celsius) they are fine for shorter journeys, but if I were going on a longer stretch or highway I would choose something warmer or add bar muffs / heated grips.
