STOCK


Lightech


Vortex


Both rear sets throw the pegs pretty far back already, the range of adjustable with vortex and lightech differ by only 1 line. Vortex only looks like it has more adjustment because of the 18 holes drilled into the plate which can be effectivebut looks like 2 Tic-Tak-Toe boards.

your right, the pegs on vortex looks shorter

im not here to change your mind, if your set on vortexs then cool. im glad we have many options to choose from. but from where im standing, it looks like i only have 1.

since im a typical american, i have to add a bit of ignorance into my decision and say that Chuck Norris would approve lightech.

Decided to go for Lightech eventually, after concidering all pros and cons.
For your info they sell them in europe for 345 euros fixed or 395 eur for folding pegs

Rizoma is cool but does not look sporty to me more elegant if u know what I mean. Also only has four fixed positions for pegs and according to the spec it would not be what I am looking for. And thirdly and finally THE PRICE
