    I might benefit from a idea such as this.
    I have very little movement of my right ankle and find it difficult to stab the brakes depending on the angle of my foot at the time.
    If going downhill, it seems the pivot would put the pedal out of reach.

    They've been around forever, and I've read reviews on KTMtalk many times. Seems they take a short while to get used to, then are generally well liked.

    I've had mine for about three years and think they are great.Took me no time at all to get use to them.A couple of times I have accidentally stabbbed the rear brake because of the pivot.I feel I have a bit more control and they are easier on my ankles.

    Love these pegs! Every bike of mine has a set. I seriously trashed my ankle a few years back. Ended up with 2 plates and 13 screws in it, severely hampering my range of motion. The footpegs make it much easier for me to shift, and I feel so much more planted on the bike when going up/down hills and through trail junk in general. They might feel a little weird at first, but after a few minutes you don't even notice it. I can't ride without `em now :thumbsup:

    If you need them like WoodsChick then fine but otherwise why do you need them ?

    I don't but there are a pair for sale in my local paper and I had never heard of them before and was curious.

    I don't think it's necessarily a question of need. It's just different, like a lot of choices we make in setting up our bikes.
    My husband Eric has no issues with his ankles or feet but he rode my bike and loved the pegs. He liked the way his feet stayed planted on the pegs regardless of what the bike was doing.
