Hi all,
I had a very bad experience today with my new IMS pro-series foot peg and my new AlpineStar Tech-8 boots.
I heard before that the pegs with time will cut the sole of a boot. So I said to myself. Ok, I'll ride with my new boots and keep an eye on the sole.
But things want really bad!!! It's not the sole that got damaged. It's the side of the boot. My new boot are cut completely about 2inch on the side at one place. Another Half a inch somewhere else. Ouch!!! I couldn't believe it when I washed my boots after the ride. I paid big money for the boots and scrap them after one ride. It was the first time I was wearing them.
So I just wanted to warn you. Forget about the sole. It's the side of your boot that will be cut if you don't grind the "knife" on your IMS peg. The knife are on the round side of the peg.
How can IMS design such a peg? I can't afford a new pair of boot after each ride?
Anybody experienced that?
Patrick
