High way pegs!!!! You posting these pictures is killing me, I want them!

Got some representative bolts to see the left side mounted up. Production bolts will be silver in color:

Going to change the sale price later tonight so if you're on the fence about getting a set you might want to pull the trigger now for this deep discouraged. [up]

Is it possible to request black hardware?

Can I still get a set at the discount price for 03

Is it possible to request black hardware?

Unfortunately I haven't seen able to source black hardware that was both strong enough for the application and that had ample corrosion resistance. Standard black oxide bolts that would be strong enough would rust really quickly and that's the last thing I want to happen. Function takes slight priority over looks in this scenario.

I'll keep looking around for it but short of powder-coating the hardware (which I don't have the budget for) I'm doubtful that I will have much luck. It appears that my competition has the same problem as they all use non-black hardware.

The other option would be paint but I haven't had much luck doing that as they usually chip or scratch the bolt head where they are tightened (which looks bad and makes them prone to corrosion).

If any of you have any sources for black alloy steel hardware (grade 8 or better) with good corrosion resistance, please feel free to pass them along via a PM.

Thanks!

I've updated the pricing on our site now that we have met our goal and the ball is rolling on sourcing these. They are now $120 before the forum discount (Still a bargain IMHO). Reserve your set at
www.5-0dro.com today if you haven't done so already! [cool]

Thank you for your business!

High way pegs!!!! 

I rode to work today with the prototypes mounted up. Unless you're into riding in the fetal position, I don't think these will double as highway pegs

Is it possible to request black hardware?

I'm working on this and think that I can pull it off. No promises just yet but I'll let you all know.

I want to communicate a few changes on these parts (for the better) from the original description. They are:

- The sliders will NOT be machined from Delrin brand resin but another high performance resin that is actually more resilient than Delrin. Still black though.

- Hardware will NOT be stainless steel. As I mentioned previously, stainless hardware is not strong enough for this application. I have been able to source some custom made black (YES BLACK ) hardware that is comparable to the strength and corrosion resistance of the hardware on your bike's case now.

I've been able to make these changes while keeping my price the same so I'm happy about that! [up]


*******************
On another note...There are a few people that have expressed interest in these parts but have NOT placed their orders on our site. I can not honor the discount price for you if you don't place your order while the discount is being offered. To do so would be unfair to the others that placed their orders earlier so please place your orders ASAP to get the current discount price of $120 (after forum discount).

May 1, 2012 is looking like the timing as of now. Of course it's often difficult to control the delivery times from my vendors but I will keep on them and get these out as quickly as I possibly can. Those of you that have ordered from 5-0dro in the past know how we pride ourselves with quick turnaround shipping so you know we'll be working hard to get these out to you and of course will be communicating along the way.

If you have any questions on any of this, please ask. We're extremely excited to start offering these and can't wait to see them on your bikes! [cool]
