i want to start racing and i know i need to get nerf bars i have been looking around at llike pro-armor,ac racing , um and man are they expensive!

my boots get caught on my stock heel-guards so i want to do away with them but i'm afraid if i get a pair of nerfs without the heelguard(the ones i can afford) and take my heelguard off i risk my foot slipping between the foot-peg and the tire.

does anyone else race on nerfs without heelguards? has that ever happend to anyone?

thanks guys i really apreciate the advice

i used to have AC pro pegs with heel guards. but when the ACs fell apart i got some pro pegs with no heel guards and ive been fine since. you learn to ride differently when you know you have nothing there to protect you. your feet stay planted on the peg and dont lean into where a heel guard would be.

so it's not that bad not having heel-guards, your feet never slip between the peg and tire(OUCH). and is alright to race without a heel guard.

my brother had a set of DG alloy series on his 400ex without heelguards and it was never a problem on his bike but the nerfs kind of wraped around the back of the peg a little
