It's your choice whether the Black Knight's horse barding's excellent AC and useful resistances are worth losing a bit of your centaur's speed advantage, but they probably are; you'll still be faster than most opponents, though kiting may take a bit longer. That being said, this armour is considered evil and will offend the good gods if you wear it.
