Copped a pair of ESDs for like 200, and the peg is beefy as hell, plus its short enough to miss the ground in a crash. Dunno if you can put your own peg on there, and they are def not adjustable. but on the other hand, wouldnt one piece rearsets be a lot more sturdy than the adjustable ones anyways for stunting?

100 bucks shipped to your door doesnt seem bad to me with high quality steel, already powdercoated, and stock replica....hell you cant even buy stock ones for that cheap...lol c4 all the way

Re: Rearset Question from someone "636-stupid"
but like sdfkillz said, cut your peg short and it'll never hit. Im still rocking stock pegs and bracket on my f4i, only ever broke 1 rearset, and that was before I cut my pegs down

Re: Rearset Question from someone "636-stupid"
I think all the adjustable ones are built for racing, thin metal, just made to be light weight, to look good, and to get them around the track, and be adjustable
stunt sets are usually solid, no adjustablity, just built to be the last thing standing on earth after a nuclear war
My friend had a set of ho-hey's copied on a CNC, I'm buying his set for $50 since he sold his f4i, never used

Re: Rearset Question from someone "636-stupid"
ive never broke the part that holds the peg.....its always where the rearsets mount to the frame that snap on me...

thanks for everyone's advice and pics and stuff. =)
mine is already cracked on the tab by the frame probably from what neil is talking about i'm sure.
oh well, adjustment will go out the door, i need to fix this before my brakeside rearset fails.

wait, i don't understand the differences the the kinds of steel and aluminum.
billet alum is allegedly the best? what kind of steel is better?
thanks, sorry i'm stupid.

Re: Rearset Question from someone "636-stupid"
I dont know what "kind" of steel Dave uses in the C-4 rear sets. from what I understand, they'll bend before they snap. and they'll bend back without fatiguing the metal too badly. at $100 you cant go wrong, and they dont look like a steaming pile.

Re: Rearset Question from someone "636-stupid"
no....i came down from an endo both times and they broke. I was runnin a si cage, pegs never hit the ground. You just look at 636 rearsets they snap in half lol

Re: Rearset Question from someone "636-stupid"
yah and im sure it was damaged before that endo. no piece of metal is gonna snap out of the blue without being previously damaged. ive owned 2 636 and never broken a rearset.

its junk aluminum......my frame had no damage to it and it cracked? Regardless i went with c4s rearsets....

Re: Rearset Question from someone "636-stupid"
i know what it is. im sure that its made to be strong enough to withstand the weight of an average male. so unless youre in the 500lb range that rearset was damaged in a previous incident before breaking from comming down from a stoppie. how do you know ur frame didnt have damage to it, you cant always see stress cracks in metal by just looking at it...

Hey did you know that if the C4 rear sets some how do brake they will replace them for free.
You will have to ship them the one that broke if it does and you just pay the shipping and they send you the new one.
Cool right.
