Knee Problems?

Anybody have knee problems from riding? Just this week literally everything in my knee area on both legs has been feeling weak or sore, wondering if anybody else has had knee injuries and what they do about it.

Yeah especially after riding stairs and drops. It's not as bad as it used to be though, back when everyone rode stock bars the height adjustment clamp was right in the spot for your knee to hit every time you bent down on a landing.

Just keep riding and eventually it'll stop. We'll probably have shit knees for the rest of our lives though.

i twisted my knee really bad coming out of a wallride once, and it hurts a bit from time to tome. if it starts hurting too much you should really see a doctor.

I dislocated my knee cap doing a feeble to manual. Luckily it went back in on its own and nothing was to messed up so I didn't need surgery. Was just hard to walk and ride for like a week but its fine know, except since the ligaments stretched, if I twist a lot I feel it coming out

I haven't happen to me for a while. Usually whenever I ride really hard, like yesterday the weather was really nice and I rode pretty hard so I ache all over today haha.

Yeah my knees kill me after riding. It's pretty constant now actually. It's probably from the impacts and hitting your knees against the bars. I have no idea how to prevent it though, my knees are all bruised

I once fell directly on the entire left side of my body after a big drop, I blacked out for a little and when I came to my senses I couldnt walk properly for a week, Its been 3 months and Im still having issues with that knee hahah.

If you go out riding and twist your knee or hyper-extend it or something then bandage it or wear a knee brace when you get home over night. Helps it heal up real quick.
