They look pretty bad ass, but seem maybe too stiff? They have a full aluminum body, seems like maybe thats too much rigidity for a brace.

Also, the knee cup doesnt float, it is attached..

Wont be able to test them out til next weekend, but im a little nervous about them.

I rode with mine for the 1st time last weekend. The knee cup is attached but definitly floats. I have to figure out the right fitiment as after 3 moto's they where either too tight or too lose.

Overall I think they are a good brace for the money.

you guys are nuts to wear this brace. The previous one had been rated as a dangerous product by MXA, this one looks the same just with more fancy graphics.
Stick to the people who do medical research when they conceive protection devices, in the case of kneebraces, Asterisk, CTI, POD for example.

I orderd a pair also. I did not see any reviews before I did though. I have other 661 products that I am very happy with, so I figured for the price, I would give them a try. They can't be any worse than no brace at all. I don't doubt that the top dollar ones might offer better protection, but like I said, I will give them a try also.
