What's up, guys. This is Chase over here at Rocky Mountain ATV/MC. And this is a product
spotlight for C-Frame Knee Brace Leatt. All right, guys. So, we're all familiar with Leatt.
They make rock solid neck braces. And we are happy to see that they're getting their name
into the knee brace market as well.
They've recently come out with the C-Frame Knee Brace and there's, a lot of technology
a lot of cool features built in to this that we want to point out to you. So, if we start
out with the chassis, the construction of it. It's going to be cast aluminum alloy.
It's going to be very strong and very rigid. And down here on the bottom this shin plate
is going to be carbon fiber to help with weight saving and it's going to be a nice slim design.
So, if you're a guy with bigger legs like myself, large calves you shouldn't have any
problems wearing this underneath your boots.
But, come up here and look at the top, one thing I want to point out is this top cuff
here. It is going to be adjustable. It's one of the few knee braces where you can actually
lengthen or widen the diameter on the upper cuff here and how you do that is very simple.
You just take the tool that they include. You're just going to take these bolts out
and that allows you to take this piece here and you'll actually be able to slide this
and widen this upper part. That's going to give you that customized fit to your leg that
is extremely important with any knee brace.
If we look at the knee cap design here. What they have is you're going to have full knee
cap protection which we like. And the unique thing is that center knee cup is actually
going to stay in place. So, no matter where this knee brace is at, that's always going
to stay in place to get that impact resistant. You are going to have full coverage up here
on the top and the bottom as well. So, they didn't take any shortcuts when it comes to
making sure you're getting very good impact protection.
Now if you flip it around, one thing we want to highlight their hinge design is very unique
that they've done with this knee brace. So, you can see, if I take this knee brace and
I just bend the bottom, it's actually going to force the upper and lower parts of the
knee brace to move. So, they have this dual hinge design, and they've done that to make
sure that when your knee moves or your lower leg its going to force everything to move
together. So, you're getting a very good natural motion with your knee inside this knee brace.
If we turn around and look at the buckle design...or I'm sorry, the strap design, you're going
to have two single straps down here at the bottom. And then you're going to have this
nice big X strap here at the top. That's going to make sure this cinches down very tight.
You're going to have secure fit. You don't need to worry about it sliding down on you
while you ride. I do want to point out it's a very cool design here. If you look at the
side you're actually going to have these quick release buckles here. So to get those out,
you're just going to push them forward and they're going to pop right out. So that's
going to make it fast and easy to get in and out of this brace. And then on the inside
on this upper cuff here, if you look to make sure you get full adjustability and you get
a customized fit to your leg, they do come with different size pads. They are going to
go on the inside there. That's to make sure you are going to get that customize fit around
the upper leg.
Now, last thing we want to point out that we really like about this knee brace. This
is something completely different. No other knee brace is anything close to this. If you
look at the medial side here, this is the inside of the knee brace, you're going to
see that there is no bar here. They've left that open for couple of reasons. So, first
it slims up the entire knee brace, so you're going to have a low profile design along the
inside that's going to give you better contact and feel against the motorcycle. So, what
they have is called their three-point force distribution. So, they know the most important
points of contact is going to be up here on the upper right, here on inside left of the
knee, and then down here on the bottom as well. So those are the points of contact you
want to have. And that's how they were able to leave this inside open.
You are going to have adjustability here with the extension stop they have included, you're
going to have from 5 to 20 degrees of adjustability so that's going to be your personal preference
where you want this knee brace to lock out when you're out riding. So that's C-Frame
