Yep, the lowering pegs help knees quite a bit.
Back to the brace for minute, Superbrace is trying to put us out of business. Several people have compared our brace to the Superbrace on identical bikes and found it works better. They are not all the same and they do not clamp the same.
Any comment like "couldn't tell a difference" hurts us quite a bit. If its true so be it. Once a cross wind gets to 50 or 60 mph no fork brace is going to make a difference. However, ours has made a significant difference up to those speeds. It has generally been reported to make a significant difference in general handling, cornering, and straight line stability. A buddy of mine took his off for a while and rediscovered the difference it makes.
I would appreciate it if you could try the same and let m know if you feel a difference or not. And if so, clarify your previous posts. It would mean a lot to us. If you don't notice a difference I'll buy the brace back.
