Overview
With a slim ergonomic design offering a high level of off-road performance and comfort during dynamic movement, the Supertech RK-7 Knee Brace has been engineered to provide superior knee support while remaining lightweight, breathable, and protective. This knee brace features a free-floating Nucleon Plasma knee protector encased in an innovative asymmetric fiber-reinforced frame construction for enhanced levels of rigidity. This design provides optimal structural integrity and comfort, reducing the risk of injuries to the medial and lateral collateral ligaments, the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments, and the lateral and medial meniscus.
The replaceable knee cups are constructed with a polyurethane outer shell backed with a Nucleon Plasma protector for the optimum blend of impact protection, flexibility, and scratch resistance. Strategically positioned upper and lower patella extensions ensure maximum coverage regardless of flexion or extension angles. An extremely stable, slim-design four-point hinge system perfectly follows the articulation of the knee, while adjustable extension stops assist in setting the desired maximum opening angle. Nucleon Plasma, a viscoelastic material engineered from bio-based polymers, offers strong impact force dispersion and absorption while ensuring maximum coverage in all riding positions.
Features:
- USDA certified bio-based eco-friendly and sustainable impact absorbing material.
- Soft-touch thermoformed padding ensures the highest levels of rider comfort while keeping the knee brace securely in position.
- Soft-touch thermoformed condyle padding available in different thicknesses for a customized fit.
- Nucleon Plasma embedded into the shin padding for additional protection.
- Equipped with padded X-straps backed with a non-slip material to ensure the brace remains securely in position while riding.
- X-straps are profiled to avoid pinching the back of the knee when fully flexed.
- High tensile strength buckles are robust while remaining flexible for easy strapping and adaptivity.
- Upper and lower buckles are easily locked into the closed position by a keyhole snapping system.
- Easily exchangeable extension stops (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 degrees) to limit overextension.
- Knee protector: EN 1621-1:2012 LEVEL 1 certification.
