Default Forward Control Adjustablity?

Is there any? I like how they are set up on my bike......but at times (mostly on long rides) I think that if I could move them back just about an inch, it'd be better.

I've seen kits to LEGNTHEN them, just never one to shorten it up a little.....prolly a stupid question, but thanks.

I put a set of Peg Elevators from Custom Cycle on mine and it brings them back about a inch. These along with some heel rests and they are very comfortable. No other mods needed just adjust the shifter and screw the brake rod out a little to push the pedal up.

They also have a set screw in them so you can angle the pegs a little. I have mine turned in the bike a little which feels good to me.

Bought mine directly from them for $75 I think.

Few pics

You could always add some dummy mid pegs on there too. I have them, and they're great on long trips.
