Fieldsheer makes good stuff. I wrecked (at about 45 mph) in a pair of their Apollo cold-weather pants last spring and came out with no rash whatsoever. I did land on my side, and ended up with a tibial plateau fracture in my knee, but i don't think any pants have armor for the SIDE of your knee, where my break was.
The only thing I didn't like about the Apollo pants was the lack of full-length zippers on the legs. The ones you linked to have full-length zips, though, so it wouldn't be a problem.
With the liner in, they were VERY warm, and although they weren't advertised as fully waterproof, they did good in anything less than a full-on downpour.
