Hi
was wondering if anyone had any opinions of either the Acavello Opera or Flex On incline stirrup irons?
has anyone used one or the other (or both?)
ive been looking at the Flex On ones and asked at our local tack shop today - they don’t stock flex on but did recommend the Acavello ones.
I have some seriously dodgy joints which make riding painful most of the time - currently using the sprenger bow balance which help but aren’t perfect (not sure if pain free is a realistic aim tbh!)
Or can anyone recommend anything?
Little bit of medical history for background - 5 years post tibial plateau fracture, torn MCL, rupture of ACL, 3 years post metal work removal and arthroscopy to wash out debris around the meniscus also have Hip bursitis and ankle tendinitis due to movement issues on my dodgy leg...
currently get around 20 mins relatively pain free riding before numbness and tingling, takes around 40 mins before I lose all feeling which then makes dismounting interesting...
So any ideas? Or should I take up a hobby less physically damaging?! ?
