Re: subcages folding or solid??????

My thoughts on solid peg subcages


People make non folding peg subcages cause they're easier to make not because they're better ...

Non folding peg subcages are dangerous if you flip a stoppie or if you catch a peg in the back of the leg , that and they cause more damage then good because they don't fold up in a crash and they give extra leverage so they tend to bend or break the subcage and the subframe ..

I fold my pegs up when im doing stoppies so i don't get stabbed in the back if i flip and there are other tricks like clutching up from the side where having folding pegs is better then non folding ..

On a side note i do rotate the peg brackets forward on there axis so the pegs don't try to fold up during a wheelie and this also put's your foot on the grippy part of the peg..

Below is a picture that explains why i only sell folding peg subcages
if you look close you can see that the tabs were ripped right off this subframe and that is what can happen if the pegs on your subcage are solid ...OMR SUBCAGES with folding pegs are the way to go....

Re: subcages folding or solid??????

When I got my f4i it had a solid peg subcage on it and the subframe was tweaked from it, I would rather have a solid peg but **** messing up the subframe they are hard to find anymore

Wonder if a brace from the rearset to one of the mounting tabs on the subcage would prevent that

no but that would make the subframe stronger up and down but not side to side

BUT It would keep the brackets from flexing in when it hit the ground which cause them to break
