G-day,
I got a big problem, after ripping my cruciate ligament and surgery last week, I now need a knee brace. Most of knee braces i have seen in the www. are for mx and seem pretty stiff. An importent criteria; is that it has to have somekind of safety catch at 90 degrees, so that my plastic doesn't rip again.
Can anyone recommend a Brace for dirt or downhill.

Cheers!!!

Sorry to hear 'bout the surgery but at least you've still got it all there.

I'm not sure about the 90 degree lockout thing but you've got to take a serious look at Astrisk. These are the absolute bomb. Freaking bombproof really. They are not cheap by any stretch of the imagination but as you know a blowout is not cheap either.
