DJR Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 What operation was it? If you need to keep ligaments from ripping again (Or something in that line), you should get a brace, pads wont help. I wore a brace for a while, not fun at all Saw Greg was also sporting a Brace last weekend. Very valid point this, good thinking!
Raydek Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 unfortunately, from overseas as there is no local distributor. Is this still the case? Really interested in some elbow/forearm guards from them..

trail - er - park Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Can pedal all day in IXS Flows .... you forget you are wearing them.
Capricorn Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 that sucks.. but thanks. you can try MxAlliance, as they seem to a local branch of BTOSports, who are in the states. MXA dont normally hold stock, so they order from BTO. It takes an enormous amount of time to get here. Local post office strikes and go-slows certainly don't help.

Spotted them in a search so emailed them for some info, if their correspondence is anything to go by, then my hopes aren't high..
Lance Roberts Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Just saw this on Gumtree,http://www.gumtree.co.za/a-sports-bicycles-fitness/milnerton/661-knee-shin-protection/1001270548090910000135309Might be a better option to try it first before spending the full amount on new ones.
stomp13 Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Howzit, I know it's been 2 years, but I'm now looking for kneepads that are suitable for XC mountainbiking, and wondered what you had settled on? Any advice 2 years down the line would be greatly appreciated :-) ThanksPhilIve just had a knee operation and Im looking to get some kneepads to wear on training rides for some protection!Any advice please on what to get!?

RiverInTheRoad Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Leatt Airflex Pro are a good option. http://www.leatt.com/shop/body-protection/knee-leg-3df-soft/knee-guard-airflex-pro.html Expect to pay +- R 1100
The Ghost Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 Holy Necro Batman.... but nevertheless what is the latest news on this kind of gear, preferably something available locally as Im already sitting with a shipment from CRC in customs and Im over that noise?
Traveler Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 Something like this? https://www.pinned.co.za/leatt-knee-guard-airflex.html As mentioned above (a long, long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away) the Airflex, or Airflex Pro.
The Ghost Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 Thanks, I will try these with trepidation as the few Leatt items I have purchased this year havent exactly left me full of confidence.
Goblin Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 +- On IXS flows.They are sold at bike shop at Wolvespruit mtb park.
