Asterisk Knee Brace - Product Guide.


Perhaps the most complex biomechanical parts of an off-road racer's body is their knees. Asterisk Knee Brace Cell Protection System is aimed to protect this delicate joint.

The red main body is constructed from a mix of carbon fiber and foam which allows the Asterisk Knee Brace to be light yet rigid. It's outfitted with hard adjustable nylon cuffs for a custom fit at both the calf and thigh. A fabric tether attaches between the bottom cuff and the rider's boot, thereby reducing the chances of injury due to lateral twisting. The center floating hard nylon patella cup provides superior impact protection at the knee. Four-point hinges on either side simulate the natural motion of the knee and can be custom adjusted to limit the degree of knee extension. The brace is shaped anatomically for an ideal fit to the rider's legs.






The interior is covered in shock resistant foam and fastened with an innovative arrangement of crisscrossing section of nylon cord forming a net that connects the opposite side with four plastic snap buckles. The nets can then be adjusted via drawstrings. Each brace weighs just over 1.5 lbs. and has a very high-end build and quality feel to them.

Included with Asterisk Cell Braces are Fabric Knee Sleeves to be worn underneath the brace for both sweat absorption and overall comfort. Upon fitting the braces you will notice a snug yet comfortable fit, with braces staying in place during racing. When riding the braces minimally restrict rider movement, yet their presence is felt immediately in the form of improved energy absorption/support during hard impacts and increased leg stability.

Proper fit is essential, and accordingly each knee brace is provided in 5 sizes ranging from Small to XXL. Size is based upon the knee's circumference as measured at the middle of the knee cap.

If you have an existing severe knee injury, such as a torn ACL/ MCL/LCL/Meniscus, perhaps an Orthopedic Knee Brace such as Donjoy Knee Braces may be better suited or recommended by a physician. However these are very custom devices designed for a specific injury, and are typically sold by prescription only. Patients in this category should seek advice from their medical provider to ensure they get the correct sports knee brace for their specific condition.

Bottom line, if your knees are in relatively good shape and are looking for top-notch protection to prevent injuries to one of your body's most valuable parts be sure to check-out the Asterisk's Cell Knee Brace product line.
