Just had mine done on the 16th of October - so I’m 9 days post op as well. I walked out of the hospital that day with a leg brace on.

I for sure am. It was a slow day on Vital and wanted to see what people thought

No, it really doesn’t bother me.... just an observation that I thought would drive a lively debate.

Ok, I can get on board with that do a degree. I know the industry is petty. He’s worked with Thor for 2 years, and probably knows the Thor guy on a personal level. Terrible example, but if I was a top level guy and needed some non-branded AStar boots ... more »

Don’t remember where I saw it, but someone mentioned that they “Expect Bagget to honor his contract”. Anyone know the story behind that?

That a pretty inflammatory accusation to make completely baseless... so I assume you know this for sure has some truth to it?

I’ve enjoyed my Leatt X Frames this season after switching from CTI’s..... but tore my ACL in them. Do I think it was the braces fault? No Do I think a higher end brace would have protected me better? Who knows.

It’s not about availability or lack of testing time. Honda is going to manufacture and sell 2020 models in 21 as a cheaper option. I would bet money this decision to keep part of MCR on the 20’s is to showcase that they are still “new” bikes and being ... more »
