Protection


ti-mig-guy

Recommended Posts

I was scared vary bad this last weekend. Hit front tire whilst trying to hook, and had a nice face plant. The issue is that the top tube missed the "boys" but just barely. I am thinking I would be in the hospital now if the "boys" had not bounced up when I hopped. So I think I will start wearing some protection.

Do any of you where a cup? If not have you had reason to wish you had? If so how worth it is it to you?

Thanks Caleb

No one that i know or have ever ridden with wears a cup.

I don't think!

:P

Hitting your... "area" is not a common enough injury to be wearing a cup.

But i'm sure that if Deng brought a CNCd one out, plenty of people on here would buy it!

:D

deng doesnt need to make one. he'd never need one. his balls are fully cnc'd. his penis is also cnc'd but has the scoops like on o05 rims to save weight but not reduce strength or hardness

Your facts are wrong! His entire "area" consists of a CNC machine.

Now figure out how he CNC'd his head.

A cup's not really going to give you that much protection anyway.

If you'd have landed on the top tube it'd have been pushed up into your 'junk' anyway and crushed them rather than the top tube doing it.

And chances are actually wearing a cup is going to make you more likely to catch it.

Top tube is the issue. I have an old school bike with a straight top tube. Can't really see myself wearing a cup, but I have this huge bruise, and two spots that split open from the impact, and the boys rest right on them. To close for comfort.

I'm thinking of trying to explain to my wife that I need a new frame, so I don't have to worry about this. Unfortunately I have only had this bike a few months. I should have held out for a newer style frame I suppose.

Thanks for the input, I guess...

Who is Dang?

dEng Is the maker of zoo,gu,adamant,echo and czar.

So dang is a person? Or a factory? Why are they different brands if they are all made by the same person or factory? Oh I guess I could do a search for Dang, but I would guess it would be hard to sift through all the little mentions of him.

Nor is hitting your head but you still wear a helmet. If you want to be more cautious then go for it.. Some form of male fanny protection may take off although I'm sure it would have to be a redefined cup which was comfortable for trials.

Information about Deng which doesn't en tale of "LOLZ CNCED 'ED LOL" can be found here
