If you have a young rider, safety is paramount. With the Pod MX K1 Youth Knee Brace, you can get one step closer towards ensuring your little rider stays healthy without slowing them down or making them uncomfortable. With the Pod MX K1, you get that level of safety in a brace that’s designed specifically for the knees of youth riders. When this accurate fit is combined with Pod’s unique ligament hinge system, the brace is able to support the knee and help prevent devastating ligament injuries that occur from hyperextension.
And while the brace protects the knee, its overall design remains lightweight and very low profile—ensuring that it won’t feel bulky or get in the way of the rider. More importantly, the ligament hinge design also lets the brace mimic the knee’s natural motion, leaving the rider’s range of motion unhindered. These features make the Pod MX K1 an exceptionally safe brace, but when you also consider the modular components that let the brace scale with and accommodate for a child’s growth, the K1 becomes one of the best youth knee brace choices on the market.
