Title: Clevis pin clipped on by R clip or a split pin?
Post by: Ken 737 on January 12, 2015, 04:10:40 pm

Hi guys,

My TM uses clevis pins to hold the foot pegs on the frame.
Would you rather trust an R clip to hold the clevis pin on or hold it on with a split pin?

Thanks for your help

Cheers

Ken

I would go split pins
my road race bike was fitted with r clips on the calliper bolts (moms), front wheel. Went down in the kitty litter, got back to the pits all clips missing from the side I went down on.
