Lil' Brutus Jr. Finally on the Road Today Need Suggestions for foot rests!

Took my first ride today with my SkyHawk 49cc motorized on a Wally World Cruiser. Went an uneventful 6 miles and needed to adjust the clutch cable. But I am very happy with the build.

My question.... Due to a health issue, my legs and feet get fatigued and I am thinking of installing some "resting" pegs on my front wheel or front forks. Has anyone done this? If so, can you suggest the appropriate parts / setup.

My thought was to weld a grade 5 or 8 nut in a small piece of pipe with a form cover as a homemade fab job, but I don't won't to re-invent the wheel, no pun intended folks! Thanks for any help!

Thanks you are probably right. Yes did retain the pedals, but I was thinking about something like the big bikes use, those fold-down pegs on motorcycles. Appreciate the feedback!

Thanks Dan, what a great resource this forum is. Did not know they existed. I think I will fab one up. Appreciate it!

An alternative might be a bent or "layback" seat post so that your not using the pedals to support your weight or for balance. They really make for a much more comfortable ride. I really do hope that will help you out some.
