Does anyone have experience with riding fixed after getting their posterior cruciate ligament operated upon?
Got a doctors appointment on monday. Last time I had one they said that if my knees got any worse I would have to get them operated upon and they got worse. Not fixed related btw.
I had my MCL and PCL mended in two separate ops. Riding fixed is fine - in fact, it's better rehab than my geared bike, as it's harder for me to overcompensate with the good leg riding fixed (my good leg kept cramping until I figured out what was going on). But take it easy, don't rush the rehab. And ride with a rear as well as a front brake. Whip skids are not knee friendly.
