It would be nice to see pics and how you installed it before you start bashing. Are you 100% sure you installed it right. Never had a problem with their products before

I have a couple of Brukus products, and have had good service from them. I'm sure they wouldn't sell something they didn't test first, are you sure it's mounted correctly and the instructions were followed. I'd like to see pics also. It's not good to bash a vendor without first calling them and explaining your problem, did you call Brukus, if so what did they say?

+1 on calling Brukus. They are a stand up company.

I'll never understand why (many) people bag a company before investigating the possible cause, and discuss it with the manufacturer or seller before broadcasting it to the world.

It's easy to bash a company,god forbid it isn't installed correctly. Let's bash the dumb dumb who installed it.

I've had one of their shoes on each of my last two scoots. On occasion I do corner aggressively enough to scrape the boards... but I have never had the shoe contact the pavement (unless I was parked with the kickstand extended).
My guess is that it wasn't installed correctly... although I don't see how one could install it incorrectly.
