Hey!
I had my left knee replaced 6 weeks ago, and have been cleared to ride again. I'm really looking forward to riding easy trails again! It's been many years since I've taken a bike off the pavement, and it's one of my goals after completing my PT/rehab.
With a total knee, I need to protect the joint from damage - even a minor wound can cause infection. Since the body doesn't recognize the implants, the chances for serious infection are greatly increased. Heck, I have to take antibiotics to get my teeth cleaned!
After talking to several of the local bike shops I've settled on the 661 Veggie Knee Wrap.

Does anyone have any experience with them?
