stump magnet Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 cant decide which pegs to replace my now worn out alu ones on my 06 sherco (cant sharpen them any more!) have looked at the hebo ones and the ghost ones but also like the look of the new jitsie ones with the replaceable grub screw teeth (so no more sharpening) and at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ticket2ride Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 I had the same selection problem.. Went for the Jitsie ones and they've been bombproof.....nice platform, good quality and plenty of grip from the grub screws...however, be aware that the stainless teeth are not removable I don't think....I haven't tried but there doesn't seem to be any access to unscrew them...

barrybaines Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Currently got the trialcast Ghost pegs and they are flawless, but as i`m upgrading my bike within the next week i`m very keen on the Raptors so if they aren`t already on there i'm gonna try and scrape enough together too get some if your saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezza Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 The Raptors are superb. Had them on my Beta for about three months now and they are excellent. I do loads of really muddy trials and they don't clog up like the standard ones and I have not noticed any real chew up on the soles of my boots but the grip on the pegs can't be faulted. In terms of value for money I think that for two well engineered pieces of titanium, sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Save up and get the Raptors, they are the dogs danglies, cant imagine riding another bike with out some, they are that good. As said above they dont clog up as much, you feel really planted on the bike all the time and balance is easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the addict Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Stump, buy the pegs and give them to the missus, tell her they are earings or broaches, they look that good, Raptors even come in a presentation box so you wont even have to wrap them She will be really pleased you have gone to all the trouble and expense in getting her some bling and you will get a nice little hug and kiss and possibly a rub out as well. She wont like them of course but wont say anything and just stick them in the bed side drawer, get them out next day and stick them on the bike, job sorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralph Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Pehaps she wonts some bling and they are not for you at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Nice one Stump they are a work of art, spark on the rocks and almost indestructable As PHB said you can either keep them for your next bike or sell them seperately on Ebay or here and get at least half your money back not too expensive when you look at it like that.
