Currently running a Bridgestone Battlecross X20 rear on my bike and have really liked it so far. I’d be interested to hear if others on here have used it as well and if they think the durability is decent (I’ve only put 5 hours on mine). The X30 may be a good one for you as it hooks up nicely...

Another vote for O'Neal Hardwear. I have been running the stuff for many years and it is very durable.
I recently bought the IMC Sport wrist braces with the glove modification for both my left and right wrists as a preventive measure. I am thankful that I have never had a previous wrist injury and am certainly hoping to keep it that way. Let me tell you guys, riding this past Saturday for the first time with the braces...

I broke my arm (ulna and radius) 11 years ago when I was 21 years old. Same sort of thing, head-on collision with another rider but I was riding desert trails and not on a motocross track. I had to have plates, pins, and screws placed in order to put it back together. I have never had the metal appliances...

If only your bike was in Texas! This thing looks great! You wouldn't happen to be making any trips out this way would you?

For all of you who own or have previously ridden a 2015 CRF250R, are the forks really that bad? I have an opportunity to buy a new, leftover '15 but am hesitant based on what I have read about these forks. Should I avoid purchasing this bike? Any help on this would be appreciated.

For all of you guys that are without an ACL, how long has it been since you tore it? Any plans on an ACL reconstruction or are you able to function well enough without it?

I rebuild teeth for a living, I'm a dentist. Do you own a dental lab?
Guys, I want to thank you again for all of the information and time spent answering all of my questions. I feel like I have learned so much the past couple weeks regarding ACL reconstruction due to people's feedback and from all of the medical articles and studies that have been posted. After all of my research I made my...
Is there any research that shows risk of future arthritis in the knee (contralateral knee) that the patellar tendon graft is harvested from? Will the opposite knee become weaker or show symptoms on patellar instability over time? Thanks again.

Thank you all so much for the information and for the various responses. StartedTooLate, I have done lots of research regarding various graft types and have read many good things about Dr. Mark Sanders. Why does he believe using the patellar tendon from the opposite leg is advantageous? I can see the positives of doing so on the standpoint of...

For those of you with past ACL tears I have some questions and am hoping for some good feedback. A little background first. In 2002 I tore my ACL (full 100% tear), did physical therapy and was able to strengthen my knee enough to where I did not have ACL reconstruction surgery. Fast forward 13.5 years, my ACL deficient knee...
