Default Awesome Ebay Pegs... Review/Installed Pics

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWNX%3AIT

there is the product that i am reviewing (Ferrari Theme Project Build)... below is a picture of it installed on my powdercoated rearset... looks awesome all put together i must say




As far as the product itself its very reasonably priced and the finish is impeccable. Made Of aluminum has a hole drilled through the middle for added lighten-ability. This set even came with new springs so you can throw away your old crappy ones. Install was a breeze (esp since i have the whole bike torn apart). A few things I must add that I thought was very nice.

1) It comes with new springs as stated above
2) Unlike your Stock Pegs that have to be replaced entirely if the bike falls and they get messed up these pegs have a unique design. If the peg gets messed up all you have to do is unscrew the end and screw a new peg end on. This also comes in handy because if you get bored with one color you can buy a different one and install the new peg without taking the whole assembly apart.
3) There is a very noticeable difference between weight compared to the stock pegs.
4) Some people may think that these pegs wont stick well to your shoe being metal compared to the stock rubber. But the grooving on these pegs are very clean cut and sharp enough that i don't see slippage being any problem at all.

ALL AND ALL IDE REVIEW AND GIVE THESE PEGS 5 OUT OF 5 STARS

AWESOME PRODUCT
Thanks guys,
Zac

these ones are flat on the bottom so the bottom is right against the rear set so it cant sag.... and rounded on top so i can fold only up

mine were originally flat too however. It was made of poor quality aluminum that wore away and bent inward over time.
