Curious what your decision process was to go with EVS vs. Asterisk? Looking to get a set myself. Are yours a prescription fit?
Something about tweaking my knee on the side, always seem to do it at least once a year.
PRICE!!! I forget exactly what they cost, but these were $200-250 for a pair where everything else was like $200 for one. I forget the model name, but they are twin bars, with a hard plastic cup over the knee cap and a foam/rubber body. They come in diferent sizes but its kind of a universal fit.
Like I said I had a somewhat servere MCL injury last season (sit down, grab your ankle and violently pull it toward your face, that's the pricipal of what happened in my dismount anyway). At that point I knew I needed to start wearing braces (why do bad things have to happen before we wise up?), but even when my knee still hurt I couldn't stomach the cost of any of the other braces. These were still expensive IMO, but they were the only ones I would consider at all affordable.
They are the lesser of two evils in MX riding comfort wise, but with looser fitting sled gear I forget I'm wearing them.
