Pants leg protection? Kids oily-leg syndrome.
-
28-09-2016 03:02PM#1Dunno what the name for such a thing is if it exists, but the kids are cycling to school and their uniform is a baggy tracksuit pants. Naturally because my kids are amazing they're on the big ring every chance they get
but it means their right pants leg is manky with oil from rubbing off the chain. I use the age old jeans leg tucked into my socks trick but it doesn't work so well for them.
Is there a clever accessory available that can be pulled on and off easily that would keep their pants clean?0

"Installation is somewhat painful, so be prepared to put some hours in if you choose to do it at home.
The downside of the SKS Chainboard is of course the looks of it. There’s no escaping that it’s big, plastic and ugly. "
OK, so that ain't happening. You're never too young to be indoctrinated into the velominati 0 -

Trouser leg tucked into the sock!
Yeah, that's how I roll, but the kids only have titchy ankle socks and the uniform pants tend to... pool about the ankle.
Anyway, I'm way ahead of this curve. Called into cyclesuperstore and they had these "leglites"
Exactly! how I imagined the solution to be, only too late to patent and profit from it. Zip up calf thingies.
We'll be test riding em tomorrow. 0
