HardDrive/WPS

FLO Pro Series Race-Bred MX Style Pegs

Boise, Idaho based distributor HardDrive/WPS continues to add to its V-twin product line with several new brands now available and ready to ship to U.S. dealers - from National Cycle screens to ODI Lock-On V-twin grips, from BOSS Audio products and KB Super Duty Series pistons to the race-bred, super strong, precision-machined Pro Series MX style pegs for H-D and FTR 1200 applications, and now, is exclusive distributor for FLO Motorsports.
A major player on the AMA Supercross, MX and off-road scene, Fountain Hills, Arizona based FLO Motorsports combines top quality materials, genuinely race-bred design and exquisite finishing to produce MX style footpegs that are strong, durable, ergonomic and above all safe.

FLO Motorsports' adjustable MX style footpegs (seen here for Softails 2018 and up) feature a 360-degree rotating clevis and choice of three sizes - also available for FXR, Dyna and Sportster.


Using top grade German forged 7075 T6 alloy, FLO Motorsports footpegs are used by some of the top AMA Supercross and MX athletes and teams in the world - such as factory Supercross teams like CTR Motorsports (Yamaha), Rockwell Race Team (Yamaha), SKVI, Cycle Gear Team, Colby Raha, Haiden Deegan, Brian Deegan, Talon Hawkins, Preston Boespflug, and more.
"The 7075 T6 alloy that we use is a true high-strength 'aircraft' grade aluminum alloy. Its typical yield strength (73 KSI in the T6 condition) is comparable to certain steels, giving the alloy a remarkably high strength-to-weight ratio - its specific strength is comparable to that of 6Al-4V Grade 5 titanium. Our 7075 is roughly 2-3 times more expensive than 6061 - for this reason it is not as commonly used.
"However, footpegs are one of the most overlooked parts on a bike, but one of the most important when it comes to safety. No matter how much power a bike makes, it means nothing if there is no control of the bike. Harley riders probably don't give as much consideration to the functionality of their footpegs as they do to how they look, but most professional AMA Supercross, Motocross and off-road riders go with aftermarket footpegs for a wider platform, more grip and overall control of the bike, and ours are considered to be the best available.

Seen here for the FTR 1200, FLO Motorsports use a forged 7075 T6 alloy with a specific strength comparable to that of 6Al-4V Grade 5 titanium.

"FLO Motorsports' original V2 Harley pegs were one of the first moto-inspired pegs on the V-twin market. In addition to their 'top shelf' alloy, they have advanced design features such as removable and replaceable cleats (teeth), replaceable 360-degree rotating clevis and a choice of three different sizes - starting with our V2 peg at 2'' x 3.125''; V3 peg at 2.7'' x 3.5 and the V4 peg at 3.5'' x 5''.
"Our Harley footpegs can be rotated a full 360 degrees to any angle, provide pitch adjustment hardware and come with replaceable, unique style stainless steel teeth."
Seen here for 2018 and up Softails and Indian's FTR 1200, they are also available for FXR, Dyna, Sportsters and custom chopper builds. FLO also offers serrated V-twin/H-D mini and touring/bagger floorboards, MX style levers, brake pedals, brake rotors and more. They are also available in chrome.
