pegs on a hardtail?
 
Is it possible to put pegs for a bmx on a DMR Drone reptoid?i know it might look stupid but i like to have pegs on my bike.Another thing is that you can use the reptoid for street and vert so what is your advice

Raiden 10-12-09 09:02 AM

Does it have a threaded/nutted axle in the rear?

Edit: Maybe a thread for the BMX or MTB section?

The Drone has 14mm axles so you should be able to run pegs, at least on the back. I believe the Reptoid has a DJ3 up front with a 20mm TA though, so you may be limited to the back.

What would make you say something stupid like that? It's an MTB.

lmao. agreed. unless your 10 or a bmx freestyler, you should leave the pegs at wal-mart.

Unless your twelve, you should no how to use you're grammar correctly.

Back on topic: Can you put pegs on a bike with QR?

No. Not unless you switch to a threaded axle. And even if you did, grinding and peg stalls would be putting weird stresses on the bike that it most likely wasn't designed to handle.

not to start an argument but my grammar is perfect? and perhaps before you bash someone you should realize that the proper spelling no when used in that format, would be Know. get it right. Rookie.

I wouldnt go that far, I've seen some people do pretty cool stuff with pegs. That being said, I dont approve at all of the tools grinding (nothing against grinding, just dont do it on bikes) at places of business. They ruin it for the rest of us. One of our best urban areas now for the most part bans biking, not out of fear of lawsuit (I've talked with one of the business owners), but because they were tired of people ripping up their railings and ledges with pegs and generally disturbing the peace and being obnoxious (fortunately they dont call very often for MTB's because I guess that crowd is considered to be less rowdy, but I often ride with BMXers, so that kind of suck)

I think pegs on a 26" hardtail are pretty sick. Bike parks have hand rails made just for grinding. Sweeeeeet.

Go watch Jib.

No, that is what proper spelling and grammar would look like.

Yes this does have a spot and will be kept in mtbing.

If it's the drone with the rigid fork, you should be able to with ease.
