POD K8 Carbon Knee Braces Review | Watch Before You Buy

I review a pretty big investment in my Pod K8 Carbon knee braces. I've had these for 4-5 months, and used them fairly extensively in that time on the DRZ with Safari 17L tank and on the 2022 Xtrainer 300 and have been absolutely thrilled with them.
They're comfortbale, fit well with riding gear, hug the tank well, allow great movement, don't budge once on, and give a lot more confidence on the trails.
Very happy with the purchase and I hope that the video review helps others who are considering knee braces to make their purchase.

Thats the way. I have pods too, I don’t even jump on the dirt squirter without them. One knee recon has taught me that lesson.

I have the same set, can't fault them! Nothing major in them yet, touch wood, but have had a couple drops/very low speed washouts & have been absolutely fine.

It's nice to know you have that extra bit of protection hey. And they're quite comfy too!
Imo you got lucky not ordering the Leatt C Frames, those were also my first choice of knee braces for similar reasons. I bought a pair but when I got them I found them to be much bulkier, heavier, and awkward fitting than I had expected. I tried to make them work, but after a couple of weeks gave up and sent them back. The experience put me off knee braces as a whole for a long time. But recently I saw a friend's pair of sleek looking Pod K4s, which he let me try out. I liked them so much I bought myself a pair immediately. I think they feel lighter and more natural fitting than the C Frames... and the K8s are the same but even lighter. So I think you made the right choice.

Thanks for sharing mate. Yeah, I nearly bit the bullet on the Leatt. But glad I habe the Pods. I recommend them to mates, but they're expensive, the K4 would suit them well by the sounds - will get my son a pair as soon as he stops growing!
What size are you fitting in medium?

@@nathancordova4618 I think so mate. I was gonna order the large online (as most items are L-XL that I order) but when I tried these the mediums fit well. Best to try a set to check for yourself.

Do the knee braces have a lock setting if you need to simulate taking a bush shit. The comfort of going to the toilet without the toilet and I'll be sold if they have that feature.

They come with some pieces to limit lockout so your knee doesn't hyperextend. Not sure how that'll affect doing a bog 🤷♂️🤣
