Quote from: Zyker on January 07, 2017, 08:13:39 PMAbout 84 cm. But I do not know if I measured well!

It's quite weird, i would have such an inseam after 11cm of lengthening.
I think you should be fine with small amounts, you have pretty long arms aswell.

Just out of curiosity, whats your sitting height and arm length?

I will be doing external femur (monorail LON) very, very soon. I'm prepared for 7/10 pain, but then it's done.

I also heard that the scars with internal femurs are more visible than external tibias.

Pain,i think my doc mentioned the only thing why people decide to pick monorail over ilizarov is better mobility.

People after femur monorail have one huuuuuge scar, it looks rly ugly especially in the first month.

Yup, guilty of wanting more mobility plus they told me that I would probably have to stand while being on the crapper. That made 7/10 pain sound quite appealing to me
And it's going to be a gamble anyway. 7 is average and actually differs from 3 to 10.

I don't know but if ilizarov would be less painful i would pick it anyday...

Besides monorail is famous(or infamous) for being pretty unstable.
