Had THR several months ago. Will this help protect against falls from bicycle ?

It might provide some cushioning effect, but that is not what it is designed for. The product is designed to keep the groin and hip in place and avoid strains -- not to cushion impact.

I think this is a question that is best answered by a doctor.Sorry i just don't know.

Not at all. This is only a support for the groin area and actually puts some strain on the hip when in use.

I do not know if it will protect from fall impact from bicycles since I don't ride one. It would seem to me that it would help support that hip but I simply don't know about fully protecting the hip. Sorry, wish I could have been more helpful.

It is a plastic case, so it offers some protection but I wouldn't consider it "safe from a fall". The screen sits in a slot provided for it...it can move if jostled.

It offers almost zero protection against falls. In fact, I could argue that the extra weight makes it worse than an iPhone with no case, since more weight means more kinetic energy when it does fall.

I can speak to using it on exercise bikes - the answer is no. It won't catch all the movement because it is too smooth. My solution was to ask my wife to make me a velcro strap to go around my ankle. That works great. If you make one, use elastic and keep the fitbit between your ankle and the strap - don't hang it so it is on the outside of the strap. It'll be more secure.

No it doesn't. The purpose of this glass is to protect your screen from scratches and dents. It would support your screen to a certain minimum level and may help avoid the cracking depending on the impact however, it should not be solely relied on to provide drop protection as it does not have any shock absorbing element. Unfortunately there is no 100% solution to prevent phone screens from cracking or breaking in the event of a drop/fall.

Yes it doesprevent slipping somewhat however my phone did fall and the very top of the face was not protected which is the only open area on this phone case and that was a big negative in my book because it scratched. If I had to do it all over again I would not buy this product

Maybe not because it just protect the back. The front doesn't have too much protection

Yes. I think it will work.. I have a basket on front of bike and it fits over it. Enjoy it.

I have used them for mountain biking and they do an acceptable job protecting my knees and shins. I am not sure that type of protection might be comfortable for climbing and will stay in place if you take traumatic steps, small jumps, etc. I believe a tube fabric with plastic inserts might work better for you. Just a thought.

If you use foam tape, you can build uo the surface to allow adequate support. We used that on my bike with great success. My only caution is watch the battery life. Don't leave your unit turned on when you store your bike! The system could use a little design tweaking, but it is a pretty good device for biking safety.

Nope. So think carefully about where you lock your bicycle, because it's going to be in that spot for a long time.

I only had for a week. I cannot tell you if it will protect the device. I did drop once but it was on carpet.

It will offer protection. It is nice and stable, though the film starts coming off with use.

It will prevent the screen from getting scratches. It will not interfere with the functionality of the phone. It doesn't do anything to prevent physical damage to the phone caused by a drop. You would need to purchase a protective case to provide that functionality.

No but the sides are elevated to protect the screen after a fall on a flat surface.

The frontside edges are raised slightly so it will protect against falls on flat surfaces. I would recommend a screen protector to prevent scratching. I personally use the one from Zagg but there are probably cheaper alternatives.

Haven't tried it while cycling, but think it should. It has stayed on while stooping, bending, lifting, under the car and so on. If you're going to use it for bicycling the wind noise reduction that this provides will definitely be a plus.
