6.5cm femurs betzbone,lon or precise?
« on: May 12, 2021, 09:00:28 AM »

Hey guys I will be ready for the surgery by Q4 2021 and since Stryde wouldnt be an option for that timeframe; which of the other 3 would be the smoothest option?

And no i am not interested in any cm beyond 6.5cm as my center of gravity would screw up for martial arts.

Faced with the same dilemma, I went with Betzbone. It's full weight bearing, no rust, it's relatively affordable, and the feedback from current patients is mostly good.

If weight bearing is important to you (and it should be) go with Betzbone but Precise is a valid option if you can stand being limited in your movements for a long period of time. I wouldn’t even consider LON on femurs if I was you as it is by far the worst option out of the 3 for a number of reasons.
