The Asterisk Cell Knee Protection System is without question, the most advanced-designed knee system available. Patent pending revolutionary design concepts in it's key features are apparent at first site and confirmed by it's first use. Born from riders with orthopedic bracing backgrounds, the off-the-shelf Cell becomes a custom-fit device though the riders own simple adjustments. Simply, the Cell is unchallenged as the best off-the-shelf knee protection available, answering the need for superior protection at a reasonable price.
Advanced Strength Carbon Fiber Technology:
Carbon fiber injection molding process creates a strong, lightweight, rigid structure to help withstand forces and protect the knee. Ergonomically designed frame for an improved intimate feel for the bike.
Telescoping Patella Cup:
This special design will cover the kneecap area in a straight leg position and in a bent position including coverage of the areas above and below the kneecap.
Oblique Axial-Free Motion Hinge
The only hinge ever developed that can contour the inside of a leg at an oblique angle to the outside hinge. This allows for a low profile fit. Simulates the natural knee motion of flexion (bending) and extension (straightening) and automatically aligns /locates /positions /the tibia (shin bone) for a proper fit. Prevents slipping and positioning of the frames on the leg and has a "free" non-restrictive motion. Auto aligning allows for the frame to automatically locate the correct angle of the users lower leg.
Lace-Linear Buckle System
Lace linear for secure comfortable fit. Prevents "roping" across the muscles securing the frame to the leg comfortably. Provides increased protection and eliminates slipping. No stretch laces glide through abrasion resistant lace loops for even distribution and a comforting fit. Single fiber quick release.
Adaptable Tendon Cuff:
Attaches to the upper and lower frame wrapping the thigh and calf. Special tendon stripes retain stiffness at adjusted positions to maintain structural integrity for increased support and protection.
Thermo-Formed Padding Interface:
Thermo-formed for intimate frame and cuff fit. Increases impact resistance. Self centering tibia padding design for shin alignment and comfort.
