Antonio Cairoli     
MX World Champion
“Nobody goes riding without a helmet. Neither do I. But I’m not getting on the bike again without my Donjoy Defiances. They give me support at a level that no other brace can” Read More...

“Compex electrostim helps me prepare my muscles. It’s a vital part of training for me.I still want to arrive at the races as focused as possible though I do not have time to train intensively every day. Compex helps me to train in an optimal way. I really like that. Regarding DonJoy knee braces, there is no way you should compromise on safety. They give the best support you can get. And preventing an injury beats recovering from an injury every time… .”
   

Kevin Strijbos    

  

2009 Factory GP Honda Rider
 “Electrostimulation makes a lot of difference in recuperation, warm up and general preparation of the body. It also helps when you’re dealing with injuries. I’m very lucky that I haven’t had to experience that element yet. So far my season has been good. I think a good physical preparation also helps prevent a lot of injuries. That’s why Compex is so important for me. I feel I’m better prepared than I ever was and I remain healthy.”
   
Thierry Sarasyn     

Test Rider and Journalist
“For me, wearing DonJoy’s Defiances, has become something like wearing a helmet: I don’t get on a dirtbike without them. If I’m riding in an African Raid or testing a new motocross bike, I might change my gear, my helmet or my boots, but i’ll never change my braces again” Read More...
   
Phil Mercer

“The difference these knee braces are making is already obvious from my off-season form and the confidence DonJoy’s products, constant support and professional attitude gives me no doubt they will have a profound affect on my results. After all, you only get one body and its protection should be paramount to everything we do.”

"Wearing my Donjoy knee braces while riding is part of a ritual now, i cannot get on my bike feeling safe without having these around my knees, it gives you extra confidence to push that bit harder knowing that having this support and having a 100% chance of being injury free in that part of the body means better results, LIGHT, FLEXIBLE and STRONG what more can you ask for?”
