jsp Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 Has anyone got any raptor foot rest hangers fitted to there 4rts ? what are they like, do they make the bike feel an better ? has anyone got raptor foot pegs fitted as my hebo ones keep filling up with crud and i notice raptor ones have no bracing. Are the hangers stronger than the frame as i have just bent my left stock hanger and would hate to think if i fitted raptor ones there would be a chance of bending the frame. any thoughts jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartc Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 Cant help with your query but Raptor Racing www.raptorracing.biz have just announced they are to sponsor the 2006 Youth Superstars trials in June. They are supporting trials so we should support them ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhaines Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 I rode a gasgas at the weekend that had the raptor pegs fitted. Very nice compared to the standard hebo pegs as they feel big and solid under your feet, but Im sure that if you whacked a raptor peg off a rock I think the frame will give before the peg. If I had to choose who would win a fight betwen a titanium peg and an alloy frame I'd pick the peg everytime!! If the hangers are designed to be the weakpoint to protect frame and peg they will be a great buy. 10/10. I was very impressed with them, made me feel very surefooted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcota Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 I have them installed (pegs and brackets) on my 4rt and agree with rhaines - that they are super strong, super light and so far have not had any problems with them packing with mud. They are pricey but worth every penny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhaines Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 Hi, ive just fitted a set of these hangers to my 05 4RT, they are 10mm back and a touch lower, the bike feels a lot more stable, they are a top quality product and im fitting the footrests next, have you seen the front wheel spacer kits from <mention of this company is not permitted on Trials Central> yet, i think this is a great idea to remove the speedo drive, check out the mitani parts also, hope this helps, judd. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I am getting a 4rt soon and quite fancy using these pegs and hangers, but im worried that if I whack them on a rock I will bend the frame rather than the peg! Has anyone had any experience of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
