Fastway AIR EXT Footpeg Review - Wasn't going to Show them to you, but changed my mind!

[@abpob6052]

Fantastic item. I have used them for a couple years. I set up mine 5 mm low and back, one washer extra upward camber, tall studs on EXT and on the outer edge of the peg, short studs on the peg footbed. You never notice the EXT is there but if you put some tape on your boot sole you will see you actually use them often. As an extra benefit the EXT can be a footpeg for a passenger if necessary. And I have also used the EXT as grab handles to move the bike after a crash.

dude I appreciate your efforts and your channel your the only other guy in the world that loves dirt bikes as much as I do. your videos are very informed and detailed. your awesome brother. a forever fan.

[@Bodie2020]

I wonder if Tomac will use them if he comes back.

[@Lightnin42]

I bet he does

[@jaytownjunkyardfiles1999]

My co worker came off of a jump and hyper extended his ankle a few years ago, put his lower leg bones right out the back of his ankle. His ankle today is half the size of his good one, pins and plates, all sorts of nerve damage, pain, wrapped in support bandages every day . . . $275 might be a small price to pay if you're gonna ride.

[@leift70]

Upward camber helps you squeeze the bike with your knees👍 I adjust my fast way pegs up a lot and arm pump gone

[@Lightnin42]

Awesome, going to give them a try

[@portland97211]

Adjusting the camber on this system also twists the footpegs because they are mounted on an angle to the frame. Just like when your footpeg folds up it twists back as it does so. Keep that in mind.

[@Jesselivz]

I shattered the navicular bone in my foot off a jump. Definitely want to be getting on a pair of these

[@paulthrelkeld3341]

Curious if you've tried any of the pegs that offer vibration dampening and if they really work or not?

[@jeffromoto874]

Thanks Kyle. Was thinking about buying those. Also Was wondering about that design getting in the way. This review was spot on. A thanks to the other commenters as well. All good info

[@moriartym]

Hi. do these work with the steg pegs. Thanks.

[@bikez7641]

Awesome drone shot at 2:12! That's a hard line to pull off!

[@captsam54]

I just bought a set for my KTM 350 exc, $225 off ebay.. I am interested in the camber setup...

[@mack73]

Love my fastway pegs. I've put them on 3 bikes now. Money well spent IMO

[@MW3prosniper01]

Run these on both my Husqvarna’s love them . Set them up to help keep my toes in and feet while practicing and learning new techniques . Casing a jump once I know they saved me lol .

[@jfratis9081]

In the low position, if you squeeze your bike with your feet, you might feel the peg bracket. Some bikes have more prominent brackets then others. All of the cleats they make feel like ball bearings when its muddy.

[@FrankKriticos]

Will these help while cruising standing up? I wouldn’t mind the added support

[@markwindell3898]

I have these pegs and I ride motocross. They gave definitely saved my ankles a few times from some nice over jumps and cases 😂

[@NWDirtbiker]

I love Fastway pegs! With that being said I have bent one of the aluminum Air pegs just by hitting the outside of my boot on a tree root at speed. I then switched to the stainless version. Note of caution, if you get the stainless pegs, you might want to carry an extra peg pin. I hit my peg on a stump and snapped the foot peg pin. I was over 20 miles from the truck with no spare. It was an interesting ride back.

[@stevebaum]

Mike Weis , I’ve bent two aluminum ones as well. One was a drop & slide down a long steep rock, the other was a stump.

[@bradl45]

Fastway ROCKs. I bought a used bike with the fastway 2s, very nice pegs, I pulled them when I sold the bike, Ive bought a set of 3s new(love them), and have scored 2 sets of the ankle savors on ksl. our family has 6 sets overall, how can fastway stay in business, our family is set for foitpegs foe the next 4 generations! They LAST. the Impact pegs are excellant too! thanks for the video also, flat pegs, I bet the first moment you felt the pegs on the Sherco, you felt them, lol.

[@johnkoko]

I've run a few sets of Fastway pegs. Mainly for the lower peg height. No complaints from me other than the price.

[@eriknash8783]

I've always been curious about these, but as someone with short ass legs, my foot normally goes down behind my pegs and I'm convinced I would just tear up boots, pants, and my shins during leg up and down for stops.

[@curtc.6914]

Kyle. I subscribed to you channel today. Love what you do for the sport. Went to your channel on the internet and could not find your merchandise?

[@daltonnewbold5874]

2024 is pretty good metal, its the most common aircraft aluminum used. i love when they say aircraft grade 6061 its just treated so its a bit tougher lol not actually aircraft grade

[@Andy-co6pn]

I hate marketing BS like "aircraft grade " and "billet" , it means nothing without a proper spec

[@dirtbikeguy8993]

Had these on my ktm 300. They work great to protect your ankle. That being said, I was at a race a couple years ago and it was rutted and had lots of roots. I stalled the bike (while in the lead) in and uphill rut. The bike rolled backwards and the heel extension got caught under an exposed root. Once I got off of the bike, the rear suspension extended basically locking it to the root. Took me several minutes and a lot of energy to free the bike. Went from first to last.

[@Vintage-406]

I’m here after the Eli tomac lost the title for the Achilles.. 😢

[@CesarAlvarez42]

Awesome video! Wish they would make the to fit the new KLX230 and 300.

[@Jacare1973]

You didn’t mention whether a kick lever bike could use those pegs. Would the lever hit?

[@johnykryll]

Useful review, thanks fella

[@Unplugged_clipz]

Hi Kyle this doesn’t relate to the foot pegs but I’m looking at buying a pair of gaerne sg 12 for hard enduro riding would you recommend them?

[@akiliukko9434]

i have sg 12. it is the most protective boot. at first it was little a bit stiff. it is the best boot for hard enduro, if want to keep your feet safe.

[@_the_low_gold_gamer_2501]

As a track guy only I would consider them

[@GLS03RIDER]

Anyone know if I buy only the fit kit will bring my oem foot pegs down and back ? Or the fit kit only works with they foot pegs ?

[@jimistalione16]

i think the cornerstone of their marketing approach shoud have been, beyond ankle saver, that this is also for older/less fit riders that can rest the entire foot on for less fatigue.

[@jontanner1]

Still... $275? I’m good.

[@Drewski423]

That’s what I said lol. I bought a used set here a while back and still paid 160 bucks.

[@dirtbikesicehockey4788]

does anyone remember when footpegs were about as wide as two fingers? what were the manufactures thinking?

[@brianmorrison9066]

Yeah, back in the 80s.

[@MatthewC137]

@@brianmorrison9066 in the 80s they were two very skinny fingers wide.

Kyle what kind of case protector are using on this bike thank you for your time

[@leift70]

[@travislee273]

2011 I had pegs similar to that with a company called “ankle savers”.

[@bofornataro1794]

What is the next bike you are getting

[@someonethatwatchesyoutube2953]

They don’t grip your boot like a stock peg and mine broke after a little over a year. Fastway offered no replacement when I inquired.

[@HJZ75driver]

Except stock pegs are woeful

[@leift70]

My fast ways have 1/4” pins you can’t even get off the pegs if you want to lol??

[@infidelmat]

6061 is not used anywhere on aircraft except for the cup holders and door knobs (aircraft grade just means the material has a MIL spec and a certification of conformity). But the extra material cost of 2024 still doesn't justify the cost IMO, but boutique stuff is just that.

[@stacksmasher]

They have to use A2024 so it's expensive. All the other aluminum pegs break.

[@622wesc]

Love to see reviews on stuff that's been used. But to much for my pocket book.

[@Squirrel-i6u]

I don't know why they don't make them to rotate with your feet. Like for trail riding and your standing up, and rock back and forth.

[@jarrod1687]

Like pivot pegs?

[@stevieb68]

If they were priced $99. a set, they will sell 4x as many....

[@jimistalione16]

and if they priced em 30 they would sell 10 as many. who cares about cost of building

[@sfade6217]

Had those on my Sherco and didnt like in low position. You end up standing on the clevis pin tab as it is now exposed when trying to keep feet in tight. 2nd your heel will get all hung up in kickstand and require modification. 3rd you will strip those Allen cleats if you use the red locktight. Beware. I bought mainly to lower pegs so didnt work for me. Sold on eBay. Ended up with buying Flo lower pegs and modified my kickstand. I dont hit big jumps so the ext wasnt needed.

[@TimPaddy]

Sadly they don't make a single product for the 2020 klx300r. A bike that really needs new pegs. I wish they'd broaden their market a bit

[@poorwhiteboy6521]

I just ordered a set of evo 4 stainless steel set. There bullet proof

[@eugrules]

The steel ones are better. cheaper and very strong. Otherwise the fastways are the best, my first mod when I buy a new bike.

[@camselkirk7248]

Do they at least have a lifetime warranty or something?

[@ptaaty]

No. Mine broke 3 hours in....they did nothing. Worse than nothing, wouldn't let me buy a replacement peg. Contrast to tusk....no issues when one broke. I want to buy again, but the cost without support...

[@itsnaj780]

This doesn’t really have anything to do with this specific video but does anyone know roughly how much it will cost to turn a dirt bike into a street legal bike not just for parts for the labor too ?

[@itsnaj780]

gophop oh ok that’s cheap long as it’s no more than 1,000 I’m fine with that do you think it would be better to just get a dual bike off the back or get a dirtbike and turn it into a street bike ?

[@leift70]

Labor at a shop is normally 100$hr so figure that with full light setup license plate ect

[@jflynn1996]

Do I spy a Bridgestone E50?

[@wv4life375]

I welded some similar tabs on my existing KTM pegs. See my build vid. Had less than $20 in them.

[@HJZ75driver]

ruined the pegs. and metallurgically changed them

[@wv4life375]

I think if you take your time and weld them like you would sheet metal they don’t overheat. Also I’ve ridden them all year with no issues. And I still have $275 in my pocket. Was my frame neck metallurgically changed when KTM welded that on?

[@jeffflick2573]

For that price I'd want titanium pegs! Although Fastway is a great company and they do have excellent parts!

[@wv4life375]

Jeff Flick I don’t disagree with you. They make great products. This was just one prodI couldn’t justify purchasing at that price point. I am not that picky when it comes to minor leveling. Wonder if they could make a less expensive version without all the tiny screws?

[@2wheels_and_2stroke]

@@wv4life375 do you have a link to your video to show what you did? Iv looked through your channel and can't find the video you mention? I'd like to weld onto my standard ones so would be helpful to see what you have done

[@petergarratt9645]

Not that tough, I broke 2 of the 3 main "rungs" that run perpendicular to the direction of the bike on my right side footpegs after having them for about a month

[@brianricoh3242]

first thing I do on new ktm is gring the foot pegs so they are flat, otherwise wheres you bots out, cause all your weight is on the end of the peg, cause they are Kanted at an upward angle

[@Shecki603]

They're standard Evo4's are about $100 less and offer the same adjustability minus the ankle saver stuff. Hard pass on these things at that price.

[@eliclemenns5944]

Hey Kyle, I was wandering if u knew any info about the mxc model that ktm makes, I'm looking at buying one pls let know😁

[@stevenbernier4206]

Did someone get a new non DJI drone? I have to let my inner Karen out🙄. I hope when that tree was trimmed at the end of the video the cut was made where it started to rise off the ground. I know it's a little more work but it is one less thing for someone to get blunt force trauma on if they hit it. The injuries you hear of over the years are amazing.

[@01AceAlpha]

I was thinking the same thing. Plus, two people could have swung that tree completely away from the trail with less effort than it would have taken to make even one cut.

They have actually been around for several years. Because of my ankles that have been destroyed, I only run these pegs. I finally destroyed an aluminum set last month and have installed the stainless ones. Worth every penny!

[@jimmygritz9714]

I just blew out an Achilles my last race and this 100% would’ve saved me.. (granted it wasnt my pegs fault). I got knocked out of rider position right b4 impact. It should’ve never happened and I take the blame.. BUT. These would’ve saved me. And i wouldn’t have been sidelined for a month now.
