woodcraft rearsets crash test
just FYI, you can crash these rearsets, bend them back out straight with a crowbar, crash them, bend them straight with a crowbar again and they're still study as hell. your peg might be a little shorter, but the rest still looks like new and holds up to a 175 pound rider bouncing on them
don't ask how i know

just posted about that in the other thread. i guess they did what they were suppose to. they slid well on the asphalt, then snapped off the mounting tab after digging into the soft dirt once the bike left the track. a quick weld and they'll be good as new.

Those sound a lot more crash-worthy than the stock pegs, one of which snapped off and put a 1.5" hole in my knee when I lowsided last year.

Sounds like a good outcome in both areas - sorry your buddies are sore though
