• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

All I got to say about these pegs is get them.......if you are contemplating about fiddling with changing the position of your stockers......this removes the awkward too high feel....if your a little older like me......your ankles will love you......get them......if your stockers are trashed.......get them........takes about 5 minutes to get used to them (for me at least) then all I noticed was a more secure and comfy feel while riding and also bettter ability to "feel" the shifter and rear brake (especially on down hills) I would have liked to save the money with this deal but the time I had them is worth what I did not save
All I got to say.

All I got to say about these pegs is....try them first if you can. Seems they are love or hate thing, I come from a mountain biking background and really like my feet having some free play, but Kelly rode my bike with them and felt really sloppy/detached from the bike.
 
I like mine! Works great!

Here is a hot link to the site, not sure why the one in the first post is not working.

I'll stick this thread till Dec 11th.
If a kind moderator will post to this thread on or near the 11th (to bump it) then unstick it, that would be appreciated.
 
Can someone who has these compare them to the IMS pro footpegs for size and grip?
 
Size is a bit smaller. Grip is hard to compare, they're different ideas. On a big flat footpeg the grip is probably a bit better when you are standing straight over the bike, but when you get over the front or the rear you are rocking your boot onto a single edge of the big flat platform, so grip goes down. On the Pivot Pegs they rock with you, very much like a bicycle pedal so the grip is consistent. It is less solid feeling but personally when I get over the back of the bike on a downhill I love that the pegs rotate back with my boots and I like shifting/braking feel better when sitting as well. Hard to say if that makes up for the nice solid feeling of a traditional non-rotating peg, that's different for every rider I'd guess.

Size is fairly middle of the road, I wouldn't consider them wide or narrow pegs. Grip has been great for me, they feel a bit more secure as they follow my foot. I love them through the whoops, really makes it feel like the bike is floating underneath me while keeping a good grip on it the whole time. I'm just hesitant to say "buy them, you'll love them" as I have let a lot of people ride my bike and the reviews are fairly mixed. Nobody else I know has gone out and bought a set after riding my bike, for what that's worth. On the other side, I'm considering another set for my Husky, but it isn't a "must have" item for me either.
 
Thanks SpeedKills, I appreciate objective reporting like that. I can guess that I would adjust and like them. I would really prefer something like this in a wider platform for my jacked up feet tho. Seems like the rocking motion would be good for allowing a larger platform while not limiting the access to controls.

I'll have to think about it.
 
Thank you for all of the responses. If anybody has any questions about the pegs, please feel free to ask.
Those of you that do want pegs, give me a call and lets get the list started. The more people on the list the lower the price.

I'd order a set if I didn't already have them.

Marty at Brap! offered a great deal at this time last year, so I jumped on it. Very glad that I did; the pegs are fantastic.

Count me in, I can't call you right now to get on the list though (work has me locked up in a cube)

Chris
 
The count is up to 3 sets. Just a few more and the next price break kicks in!!
Just a reminder that this offer is only good until the end of the week.

Thanks
Marty

I bought a set of these during last year's Christmas special and I love them. I was just getting back on the bike after having an impromptu ankle remodel with 2 plates and 13 screws. The pegs instantly made up for the range of motion I'd lost, and I felt super planted and secure. Going up and down steep hills found my feet firmly planted on a flat peg relative to my position on the bike. The pegs were a revelation when rocking through whoops and trail junk. It took me about 5 minutes to get used to them and now the only time I notice anything different is when I ride a bike without them. My husband test rode them and ordered up a set for his bike the next day. I can't say enough about them :thumbsup:
