Dashcam - car, bicycle, motorbike compatible

Wanted knee armour
wanted knee armour please. The ones in my Royal enfield trousers have literally broken in half.
No point doing a warranty claim as its too much of a faff as I bought them in India.
If someone has some CE marked kit that would work I would be much obligied
cheers

valuing pictures etc for insurance purposes
I have been given some artwork by friends, who are students. They were damaged during a water leak. How can I assess the value for them?
