MTB Knee Braces

Why Buy an MTB Knee Brace at Old Bones Therapy?

Mountain biking puts your knees through a different kind of grind than most sports. Long climbs load the joint over and over, technical descents put constant strain on the knee, and rough terrain sends constant vibration up through your legs.

Even just braking hard into corners, absorbing chatter through the pedals, or bracing through rocky sections takes a toll. That wear translates to stiffness, soreness, or a lack of confidence that you can actually handle another run. But an MTB knee brace changes everything. 

A knee brace for mountain biking restores support where you may feel vulnerable. Our knee brace lineup here at Old Bones Therapy brings you the benefits of support without getting in the way of your ride, though. Because as extreme sports athletes ourselves, we’ve dealt with subpar gear that only holds us back and wanted to make something different for people like us.

Whether you’re grinding out miles on a trail system, exploring backcountry lines, or just riding more often than your body used to tolerate, our MTB knee braces keep you riding longer. They’re backed by a 60-day guarantee and a support team that cares, too!

Choosing the Right Knee Brace for Mountain Biking

Every trail rider has a different setup, riding style, and support preference. Here’s how each knee brace for mountain biking fits into your routine - on and off the bike.

Knee Brace With Springs

Our spring knee brace is the sweet spot between support and mobility. Flexible side springs keep the knee safe during climbs, standing efforts, and rough descents, but you can still pedal uninhibited.

Knee Brace With Hinges

A hinged knee brace brings a little more structure when trails get extra technical and demanding. It’s a popular choice for riders dealing with more instability or past knee issues. You’ll get a bit more confidence through sharp turns, drops, and unpredictable terrain.

Compression Knee Sleeve

We even make compression sleeves if you just want lightweight support for everyday adventures. These keep the joint feeling warm and supported without adding bulk under pads or riding gear. 

Big Bones Knee Brace

Designed for riders who need a roomier fit, as the wider shape won’t roll or pinch during long rides. This is the MTB knee brace for you if standard options never quite felt right. 

Multi-Use Ice Sleeve

Recovery matters after the ride, which is why a lot of mountain bikers round out their arsenal with this tool. You can use it for both hot and cold therapy to minimize soreness and stiffness, preventing your knees from feeling cooked the next morning.
