The new Mark 2 Pivot Pegz® are our best yet,
they have all the quality and benefits of our Mark 1 Pivot Pegz® but are wider
and lighter and also have some additional enhancements such as new heavy duty
long life springs, enhanced grip pattern, wider more open peg design, sculpted
and recessed mounts, even higher build quality than the Mark 1's, oh and
lifetime warranty! Did we mention that the new Mark 2 Pivot Pegz® are the widest
and lightest pivoting foot pegs on the market!

Pegz!!
Your foot pegs represent two of the four main points of contact you have with
your machine and have, over the years, seen little in the way of development
from either manufacturers or performance
companies. Pivot Pegz revolutionary design has changed this and will allow you
to ride faster for longer and with more control of your motorcycle than you ever
thought possible.
What makes them work
so well?
-
Enhanced bike feel and control
-
Easier gear shifts and rear brake access
-
Superior foothold
-
Adjustable height (most models)
-
Reduced vibration
-
Precision built, high performance product
 Inside the spring loaded shaft is a teflon bushing that is
designed to ensure smooth operation of the pivoting mechanism. Then there is
the high quality pivot spring which allows Pivot Pegz always to return to the
neutral position when your foot is removed from the peg. This feature alone is
key to Pivot Pegz success as, without it, the moving platform would not track
the natural motion of the riders foot and return to central "riding" position
when weight is removed.
Pivot Pegz install rubber 'o' rings at either end of the
pivot shaft which are so vital in keeping out water and debris. The
stainless steel peripheral torque nut keeps everything securely in place.
It is the high quality of the above components coupled with
the awesome properties of the 17-4ph stainless steel material used to
manufacture our product that make Pivot Pegz not only the most innovative, but
also, the highest quality foot peg on the market.
 Again,
as we see with many manufactures, there is a lot of buzz words and hype. My goal
was to see if they really worked. So, I made a few phone calls and got a set
delivered to mount onto my BMW R1150GS. The first thing you notice is the
heft of the castings. These foot grabbers are heavy! They are beautifully
finished and ready to go right out of the box. The rider can swap the shafts to
from the right peg to the left peg in order to drop it down about 1/2" but I
left mine at the factory setup. Installation was a joke. Five minutes with a
screw driver and a pair of pliers. The picture above are the pegz mounted to the
GS (thanks Annie). Notice the nice new peg on the well worn BMW peg mount. This
won't last long at all. Time to get them dirty!!
 I
used the Pivot Pegz on my BMW R1150 GS in the 2006 Alcan 5000 Rally. What and
experience!! We encountered many different road conditions and the pegz were not
even noticeable. My legs never felt tired or strained. They performed
flawlessly!!
In my opinion these pegz will be great for the off roader as
it was the intended use but they will make a great modification to the adventure
touring rider that wants more flexibility and comfort.
