One of my track day mates has struggled with knee problems for years, and just learned his ACL is partially torn. Does anyone know of a motorcycle-specific knee brace? It seems the regular ones are a little bulkier than ideal.

Thanks in advance for any guidance - make/model, mfr, source - anything would be helpful.

i love the asterisk for dirt, i think you might have to loosen them quite a bit to get the flexion you would want for road racing but it may still work.

odds are your feet will go to sleep easy

I partially tore my ACL this summer and ended up getting CTI2 braces. They are custom fitted and pretty expensive but they are well worth the investment if you have knee troubles. If you can get a prescription through your doctor insurance will help pay for the costs.

They will fit under leathers as long as they aren't super tight around the knee/calf.

I just had my ACL replaced and miniscus repaired 2 weeks ago. In my experience if your leathers fit properly you wont be able to fit a knee brace under your leathers.
