footpegs

Yes but not much, only the rear corner needs to be trimmed off and only the area outside the structural part of the peg. All pegs need to be relieved, even the stock right side peg is cast different. Fastways are the worst, need a lot of surgery.

So pivot pegz are better than many others in regards to having to be trimmed, amount of material and structural wise?

Trimming the pegz does not affect the integrity at all.
Basically, it's the part your boot almost never touches.
Speaking of boots, the Pivotpegs will extend the life of your boot soles tenfold.

There are some revised springs out now that won't break. I was going through springs every 4 months.

LOL Don't say I didn't tell you so! That was the first mod that was done to the Berg.

There is no way I will ride without them now. And like GGman said they really do extend the life of your boots. I went through 3 pairs of boots in one year with stock pegs. I have now had my boots 3 years and no chucnks missing at all from the sole.

I can't tell the difference. Felt like stock to me but then again I am a Red Neck.

I have had a set on my 300XC for about a year...raced all last season with them. They don't take very long to get used to and feel really comfortable. The only issue I have is I'm more rear brake monster than before...and thats bad. I have to run a very low brake pedal height but I'm hard on rear brakes.

You guys have just convinced me to go and grind down my pivot pegs from my yami. Took them off ages ago but never got around to doing the surgery. Only thing I didn't like with the pivots was the brake always being at different heights depending on body position. Can someone make a Pivot Brake?
