Hey guys, check out these pegs from chainsikle. Shane custom machined them to the length I wanted (a little shorter). He also made the shifter toe peg smaller with a finer knurl. Very pleased with these parts   | ||

Looking nice! I love those simple round knurled pegs on these bikes. I have a similar set I was excited to get but they're a little shorter than yours, and I ended up switching them out since they felt a little too short. | ||

What kind of bushings or bearings are in the pivots? | ||
| Andy350 |
No bushings, they bolt on like stock pegs | ||

The stock pegs have bushings for the pivoting of the pedals. The stockers were some sort of black plastic (Delrin?) There used to be an upgrade made of bronze. | ||

I get what you're talking about now, yes the stock pivot bushings are plastic. I had some made out of bronze. | ||

American Sport Bike sold bronze pivot bushings, but I think you can get them from McMaster-Carr, and probably other sellers. | ||

I bought some bronze bushings at Ace Hardware. I think Lowes has generic sizes too. I bought some that were close, sanded down the outside, and used the sanding drum on the dremel on the inside. Not AS precise as a lathe, but for a $1.50 bushing and a little time on a Saturday afternoon, still an upgrade. |
