    Thinking about it I recon I could cut ,grind out a one from a block of alli myself if I could find a bit cheep
    Mine came from the scrap bin at Ulrich Aluminium. Think the bastards charged me a whole fiver for it too.

    Offset pegs are not the best idea really. Since they are held on by just one bolt through the back, if they can turn, they will undo.

    I don't think it will undo where the the bolt goes through because theirs a keyway type bit on the piece that goes through the rearset plate.

    Im not talking a lot and only the peg is what im altering and only about 5 ml back from where it Is now and the peg at the moment it's slightly forward of centre of the through bolt so would probably centre it more if that makes sense ( please don't make me go out in cold and take photos).

    Hahaha, I get what you're saying mate. All good.

    Before you do though, perhaps check that the seat is centered, and the bars are straight.

    I think they are and as I say I had this felling with my last bike so think its me.
    Don't know weather I have one leg longer or something but to have the same feeling on two bikes would point to me rather than the bike lol.

    The other bike was a bit more room on it so could live with it although was a pain on long rides
    but this is more crouching and cramped up so starts to hurt the left foot after a while.
