I've been told by a fellow Dutch TRX forum rider about the construction from the LSL set. In his opinion the footrest mounting is a bit thin, so that it bends a bit when you put pressure on it while driving. His second point of comment was that de aluminium rod, the one from the pedal to the external gear axle, is touching the chaincover. On the positive side, the can deliver 4 colours :D

Does anyone else has the same opinion?

I run lsl rearsets and i think they do the job nicely and look the nuts too in my opinion.
Even from riding the trx aggressively (the spelling of this word doesnt look right??) ive never had them bend or flex so i dont know what he gets up too, either that or he weighs 30 stone!!

The ally rod does touch the sprocket cover but when i had mine remoulded out of carbon, i had them include a slight groove in that area to allow for this. It would be easy enough to do yourself.
speeding?......me?.......with my reputation?

@KW
I've seen it... don't know if it's gonna be raask, but this could be a cheap one :wink:

@billy budge
Thanx for the info. So far LSL is in front I guess, just because it's in 'black' and there is more positive information on 'the net' then negative Image

First a holiday and then a decision to make 8)

I have the Lsl rearsets too, and find them excellent.

Mine came second hand and had been crashed, one was slightly bent, but that was fixable. I think you have to be pretty heavy footed to get them to bend in normal use.

OK.. well, just received an email from Diopa, but they don't have a bigger picture to show how the set looks. So I've ask them if they could take a picture themselves from another bike, just that I have a better idea how the CNC looks. Otherwise it's a no go for Diopa in the decision to make :? Also Diopa is a bit polished, so that's not really a + , but then again, if it looks whohaa, then I will think about it :wink:

Thanks a lot, but I've already bought something (see some posts higher) :wink:

Maybe your tips can help another person here :)
