kink lights or animal lights
 
Which pegs do you prefer? I like both of them, but have heard that the kinks crack. I ride a lot of street (although I am only 5'5", 125 lbs). I like both pegs, although the Animals weigh more and do not have the anti-rotation pins. I hate having to tighten my pegs after only a few grinds. What do you think?

Kink Lights

Nearly the same peg beside the anti rolls but just because of the anti rolls i would say kink. and to hell with weight if you are worried about peg weight you need to start lifting weights. go with some kink OG's. long lastin peg right there.

If your gonna cry about peg weight then why run them at all?

FitRider 921 08-28-06 02:27 PM

I did not say that the peg weight was the most of my concern... I was just stating that it weighs more... the lack of anti-rotation pins was the largest concern.

My question is still kind of unanswered.. I stated that one pair of pegs was heavier than the other.. so shoot me.. its like mentioning the weight of frames, it might not be the deciding factor of which one to get, but it makes a difference. My main concern is the lack of the anti-rotation pins.

And they are ****ing pegs, honestly, how can they be all that different...

premiumbmx2005 08-29-06 05:34 PM

they can be differant, but these specific pegs are fairly similer.

kink pegs periodically crack in the antirollpinn area. If youre hard on pegs and super streetz I'd go with animal. If you're smooth or a parkish rider go with kinks.

What do you guys think of the Macneil pegs?

not the Ti ones, but the cromo ones.

FitRider 921 09-11-06 06:22 PM

They aren't that bad, but there are better pegs.

FuzzyRyder 09-11-06 06:37 PM

Probably good, couldn't tell you for sure, but for some reason I don't like macneil.

Probably just the name. Have you ever tried any of their products?

FuzzyRyder 09-11-06 07:19 PM

yeah, I've tried their forks, cassette hub, and a few different sets of frames and bars. Just not a fan for some reason. I guess it's cause I like other companies more.

FitRider 921 09-11-06 07:24 PM

Oh okay. I am not much of a fan of them either, but I never tried them... I just base it on reputation.

FuzzyRyder 09-11-06 07:28 PM

Yeah I'm basically an odyssey / g-sport ***** for most things.

FitRider 921 09-11-06 07:32 PM

Odyssey + Animal + Shadow + Sunday = the sh1t

That may be true, but i would just get Animal pegs.

And if you want to be cheap, just get Poverty, i mean, its just a freaking peg...

Not that tech.

FitRider 921 09-13-06 12:38 PM

I don't want to be cheap... and pegs can be a bit more technical than you think... they can have anti-spin/rotation pins and some slide better than others, so they are more tech than you think. The animals do not have anti-spin pins and I hate having to tighten pegs all the time.

FuzzyRyder 09-13-06 01:37 PM

The pegs on my old bike didnt have pins, but I barely ever had to tighten them. Just crank your axel nuts really tight and they will be fine without pins.
