Review on ๐Ÿ‡ Swivel-Lock Endurance Stirrup by Tough 1 by Bill Howard

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Disappointed with riding

The stirrups came with a footboard that was detached in several places. The quality looked bad. The included wrench only worked with one of the two screws, which had to be turned to adjust the position of the yoke. There was no other key. The room is incredibly difficult to reach to turn the bolt. After overcoming all of these difficulties by adjusting the stirrups to the desired position, I found that they added an extra 3 inches to my stirrup leather and the stirrup foot position was incorrect. So dismount, unhook straps under the saddle, adjust length, jump back in and hope it was short enough. No, now I have to punch new holes in the straps. Did this after finding the leather punch where it was hiding in the shed, putting everything together. Then again I had to figure out which hinge placement would help my knee pain. That was the only reason I bought them. I also figured they could stay unlocked and rotate when my knees needed an endurance trail. But they need to be locked in place so if you need to adjust the angle of the stirrup while riding it is a big problem and a big headache. I don't use this product and am disappointed and my knee still hurts when riding .
