Customized Boot Cleats

[York Racing]

Recently I was working on my Blaster and doing small modifications. I decided to do these for a fee just to hopefully get a small mod shop on it's feet. I'm making custom "Boot Cleats" which I designed myself. They fit on the side of the stock foot pegs and keep your feet in place while jumping, cornering, and just generally riding. I have a pair on mine and they work great. I can customize the cleats depending on the info you give me including terrain that you usually ride or race on, the aggression of the teeth, and the strength of the material. I am also doing foot peg re-teething and foot peg lightening which removes a good 2lbs without reducing strength. So just send me a message or post after this. I don't want to charge much.

how do you "lighten" them?

 

[York Racing]

By removing unnecessary material and rounding off the pegs. It makes a surprising difference.

not bad for a 1st attempt...deff clean up your idea and make it look more uniform and u could sell them.

 

[York Racing]

The teeth on this are just rough teeth made with an air dremel. I usually use a fine file to hand cut the teeth. and the angle of the cleat can be adjusted. This was just a quick fitting to see how it looked. When I send some out they will be MUCH MUCH better.

cool idea...i think it would it work

 

[York Racing]

Yeah they work great. I run them on mine and a buddy of mine races with them. Heres a better picture.

i say work on them some more and clean them up better paint em all pretty you gota have a good example product before anyones going to want to buy one

 

[sicivicdude]

I'm interested.

I would like to see a picture of the 1/8" aluminum version that bolts on the end of the peg though. No tooth sharpening for me. I don't want the foot pegs grinding through my riding shoes, just don't like my foot sliding off the end of the peg.

 

[York Racing]

Sorry sicivicdude I don't have any aluminum made yet. Those lights that are in the latest picture will not tear up anything. The teeth are made for shoes instead of boots.

Nice enterprising idea. You need a sandblaster bro. A siphon blaster and 50lbs of sand only costs $25.
Blast-em over a tarp and you can even recycle the sand. Those pegs would look new in about 10 minutes.

 

[Blaner]

yeah i like em, but clean them up and get come nice stainless steel cap screws and you are A for away.

 

[sicivicdude]

X2 paulie. Except if you reuse the sand, you eventually have to start sifting the sand. The paint pieces will block up the hose

<---knows from experience.

Yeah these cleats on mine are OLD. I made them a while back and the paint job has repeated itself 4 times or so. lol
