So you can lock these things down right? I tired the dk bear trap pegs a while back but couldn't get them to lock down and stop moving so I sold them. I currently have some kury pegs/heel rests but they are all chewed up from dragging in the turns and these look like there not as wide as the ones I currently have so they should work out better.

Just wondering... for those with "Dirt bike" pegs...have you ever crashed on a dirt bike and had the peg dig into your leg? imagine that happening but on a bike that weighed 5x as much as a dirt bike....just sayin'

You can confirm this on the Joker Machine website, but as I recall they come in a long and a short version that do not have heel rests, and then the heel rest version that is the subject of the OP's posts.

I love mine! Had to get a better bolt to lock the rotation down as the star bolt they provide was hard to tighten down for me. I've dragged them a few times leaving the gas station but it's a bad dip out of the parking lot. Each time they folded up and didn't bite the pavement at all. Lucky? Not sure but still not something I'd suggest doin. I love the look of them and they bite decent on a soft rubber boot. My work books are oil resistant rubber and didn't like to stay put. I'd buy them again for sure! Here is a picture a bit further away.

Great thread! I am getting ready to do the forwards on my Low Rider and want to do the heel rest version on the front and the regular on the back. Anyone else want to chime in on these? I am going black pegs on the chrome forwards.

Anyone else running these? Come on Joker fans. Debating between the black in long or the ones with the heel rest.

Resurrecting this thread in hopes of getting some long term reviews and overall feedback. I'm trying to decide between the long serrated and the serrated heel pedals. I don't like the look of the the heel pedals as much, but I'm willing to sacrifice form over function if the long serrated don't work as well. Trying to keep my feet from flying off the pegs on the highway on my forward controls. This is my final attempt before just going back to mids with highway pegs.

I've got the long version in the mid position... Gotta say, I LOVE them. I wish had done this a long time ago. With the front to back width, and the longer side to side space, I am able to move my feet around a good amount while on long rides. They bite nicely to my boots and shoes, but I don't find myself getting hung up on them when coming to a stop. I have had some foot arch issues over the years, and round pegs would start to cause some pain after an hour or so, but these flat pegs (platforms) dealt with that quickly. A little on the expensive side, but I feel it was money well spent.
