I have S&M XLT Race forks and the Odyssey Race Cassette Hub. For the description on Dan's it says I shouldn't run pegs for the forks and I'm pretty sure somewhere I read that you shouldn't run pegs with the hub. There is this spot that would be perfect for grinding but I'm stuck with this problem. The hub is pretty much the same as the Hazard hub except lighter and a smaller axle. I'm not big on grinding but this spot is super tempting and it wouldn't really hurt to try it a few times would it?

the fork will probably be fine, aand as long as you dont slam to hard the hub should be okay, but you are still taking a bit of a risk.

Alrighty. I'd figure the fork would be fine. My main worry is the hub but I guess if worse comes to worse and the axle gets bent it is only $12 on Dans. However I need axle adapters because I have 14mm pegs and don't want to buy new ones since they already are brand new. Yay for sketchyness.

trade your fork and front wheel with someone who has a stronger setup and does not use pegs.
