quite like the knox item as you can fit it easily with any back protector using your existing straps

I use a Forcefield back protector and that works really well. As it warms up to body temperature it moulds to your body shape and is really comfortable to ride in. They have the added advantage of being re-usable if you happen to have an off.
Forcefield have come out on top in a number of RIDE tests.
