Soo I got the fuse pads (2nd pic) recently. I really liked the extra confidence the pads gave me.
My issue is that those pads are:
1. Super bulky (had to take my pants off at the park to take them off)
2. They are pretty big to take with me on a street Mission.
3. I sweat alot in them (and the weather wasnt that hot yet..)
I held the invisa lite pads in hand a few days ago.
They are way slimmer and will fit better in any bag.
1. Are they better in hot weather?
2. Do they slide around alot?
3. How is the quality ?
I would be ok if they just make the Impact of a stem/pedal less painfull and less bloody lol. With that thin padding and low weight i would be ok with feeling a bit more.
I already hate to take the bulky fuse pads with me to ride..

Idk about invisa, I use Shadow super slims, a bit bulkier, but still comfortable, they bend pretty well and don’t slide around but it gets hot too, especially with a tighter pair of jeans. Overall I really like them, but obviously they don’t protect as mutch as the hard ones, I can still feel the falls and get bruised, I imagine invisa pads protrct even less.
Tbh, the invisilite pads aren’t really pads at all, they’re abrasion pads at best, they don’t take knocks, just stop road rash and that’s it. Modern fuse and shadows heavier pad sets are proper pads and they’re a far cry from the monster pro-design plastic capped pads where you were suited up like robocop!
