Have seen many installed incorrectly that break quickly, as others have said. Have not seen any break that we're installed correctly though.

I’ve seen several break on the newer bikes. I use Raptor pegs and they come with springs. Haven’t had a problem with mine....

Unfortunately some dealers are still installing them incorrectly. They will break every time when they are put in wrong. We have to have sold close to 300 bikes now with those very springs and none have broken.

Do husky’s use the same springs ? If so...no problems here. 165 hours on 1 bike, 23 on the other...

No broken peg springs in my group of about 10 Austrian bikes...38 hours on mine.
