I am considering getting my OH some new stirrups for Christmas. At the moment, he just has a very old pair of cheap and cheerful bendy ones for his hacking and lessons.

Any opinions between the Sprenger Bow Balance and the various different Flexon stirrups?

I love my flexon shock absorbing stirrups. I have a reconstructed ACL and they are brilliant for knees. However, somebody with bad ankles used mine and found them very painful.

I am the same as cow pony in but also broke my ankle on the opposite leg to the ACL reconstruction and find Flexons the best stirrups.
