Re: Subcages: Folded vs. solid

Solid subcage for me.

I just like knowing that no matter what, my peg is NEVER gonna fold up mid wheelie.

I'm sure OMR's won't, but its nice to be certain.

Only thing with S.I subcage is you need to keep tightening them up or they'll vibrate loose. (its no hassle, but a good thing to know)

Re: Subcages: Folded vs. solid

folding peg subcages are the way to go....

omr subcages are the original folding peg subcage and i rotate the peg mount forward on it's axis so the peg doesn't fold up by mistake and this also puts your foot on the grippy part of the peg...

also the cross bar on a subcage ties both sides of the subframe together which actually stiffens the subframe...
what about flatstock bars going from the pass. pegs to the rider pegs? have you thought about doing that for extra strength?

oh ok ,subties....

i just put a set of subties ,twelve bar and an omr subcage on a gsxr a week or two ago but i only sell subties to people that bring me there bikes because most stunt bike subframes are tweaked and i don't want to sell subties to people and have them not fit good ,and besides that any one with a drill can make there own subties
