powell1.8 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 You know it would have been, but funds got tight and ambitions changed. I sold the car, half built, to buy new gear this year. I took a major loss to move the car, but I really wanted a sweet set up for this year. First person to catch on to that though, thanks for asking.

tdifan_2003 Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 He-he, I am 1.9 ;). Great to have diesel nowadays. Great mileage, still being able to play after a :few: things done under the hood . Anyway, hopefully, you'll get back to the turbo thing. BTW, which brace did you get. i went to SA yesterday and saw a whole bunch of them. Do you have the one with the actual hinges on the side? Please let me know. We are going to vail next week :) Millen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powell1.8 Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 I did not get the one with hinges. Mine just has internal stringers, with velcro straps top and bottom. It's plenty for me. I also have just a neoprene sleeve for my back knee, to keep it warm. I have not had any problems since I got them. I hope they help. Have fun in vail.

tdifan_2003 Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 Well, i got a McDavid one with hinges and a Mueller one with just the stringers. I'll try which one works for me. M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powell1.8 Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 I like to know if you could feel a big difference in them, after you ride with them. Even with relatively healthy knees, a little extra support seems like a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Buggs Posted February 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Ok so I was very worried that I had a tear in my left knee and stopped training for the week before the session. Went by my PT guy for a last check on Friday before I left, he said No tear, most likely scar tissue from the 4 scopes in the 90s got inflamed from training and tightness. Rode 4 HARD days at Aspen with the toe lift and the knee never said boo. Whish I could say that about my back today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
