What do I look for when buying knee sliders?

[ryanf062]

i am looking for knee sliders now that mine are getting really thin but am unsure what to buy. are there good and bad sliders or are they much the same. can anyone give me some advice or recomend any.

The only thing I know about knee sliders is the ones either made of titanium or with titanium screws in them throw really cool sparks.

Go to your local bike shops as they will be able to help you.

honestly ceramic is the best costs alot more but doesnt chew out as fast as plastic WIZ make really really good sliders as well as Racing Ahead Have been looking at Motrax but dont know what they are like but they look good I like big solid ones they dont wear as fast

i honestly didnt know you could get knee sliders that spark up when they hit the ground. that could be pretty cool but off putting to anyone following.

make sure they arnt too hard, ive got oxford ones that were cheap, they dont wear down much at all, i drag my knee alot and they are still like new.

tim macarthur (username: tim39) has some really cheap plastic ones that are pretty good wearing. I've found they were alot better than the cheaper ones you get at bike shops, and about 1/2 the price. Ive never bothered buying $150+ dollar knee sliders as i think thats crazy money.

sparky knee sliders only motivate those behind you to be infront of you more.

I've tried all sorts of knee scrapers. some melt like butter and someare seriously grabby on the track.
I liked the sidi ceramic scrapers but they are really loud.
