Mikey777 44 Posted January 17, 2018 Welcome to the short leg club. This is something I have also been meaning to do and I think well worth the expense. You will compromise some ground clearance but compare that with how many times you have fallen over/dropped a bike trying to get a foot down at 0-1 miles per hour. Also, if you are doing a BDR/camping on a small bike, it can also be tough getting your leg over on a fully loaded bike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
