UpbikersGain extra length to reach the ground with your motorbike.

First, these things do actually work - they make flat-footing my BMW R1200RT possible. They take some get used-to when walking off the bike, but I quickly adapted. HOWEVER - on my first motorcycle trip using these, I discovered at a pit stop that the left unit had come detached from my boot and was lost on the road somewhere, miles behind me.I contacted Amazon on the off chance they might be able to sell me a single replacement. Amazon suggested I contact the seller in Spain directly, so I did that via an email address I was able to find on their web site. To my surprise, they responded within the hour, and offered to have Amazon ship me an entirely new pair - free of charge! Which Amazon did! I had a whole new set up Upbikers within two days! Incredible customer service! GREAT people to deal with! I am very satisfied with my purchase, and have learned to take greater care in securing them to my boots (I wear a street boot that has buckles like an off-road boot; I secure the long velcro strap that wraps around the heel UNDER one of the buckles. That makes it much more secure. )

I was skeptical at first, but was curious to see if these actually worked. It definitely added the extra reach I needed to help me feel more confident while riding around in traffic. I could not tip toe on my motorcycle, even with a shaved seat and 35mm lowering link installed, so I did not feel 100% comfortable riding even though I’ve been riding for over 10yrs now. It takes a little to get used to at first. I recommend putting them on and practice sitting on your motorcycle and try shifting and breaking etc. before taking it out on a ride to get used to the feel. Not the easiest to walk around in though. I would highly recommend giving these a try.

Excelente calidad, un poco grandes pero al utilizar con zapatos de moto no se evidencia el tamaño

It works well on concrete but has little to any traction on asphalt which is used on most steers and highways

Got it because I can barely touch the ground on my new ZX6R. These have given me the confidence to ride it and not panic at stop lights or signs. I didn’t want to lower the bike and didn’t need to shave the seat. Great value for what they are helping me achieve!!! Have been recommending to other short bikers like myself.

I am a 5'6" female and purchased a Tracer 9GT that is top heavy and has a tall seat that is also wide so I could barely touch the ground with my tip toes. I need to slide off to the side at stops to put one foot down, and the wide seat made doing that difficult. I was trying to avoid lowering the bike, so purchased the Upbikers (version 1).I had no problems shifting or braking with these on, so that was great. I did make sure to really tighten the straps carefully, and they never came undone. However, the nature of velcro may shorten the longevity of the straps and careless strapping may cause the user to lose one.The bottoms of the Upbikers are pretty smooth and fairly hard, and the contact area is a fairly small patch at the ball of the foot, so I felt they lacked grip and I felt bit sketchy on sloped, hilly or gravelly stops where I would have preferred a flat foot on the ground instead of just the toe area. I also found them tiring on really long rides and would avoid using them. In the end, I had my seat shaved as much as possible and lowered the bike a half inch. Now I can slide off to one side and get one foot down.I would recommend these for new riders who are mostly riding on decent roads and on lighter weight bikes. They could provide that extra boost of confidence as you master riding.Upbikers has released a version 2 which hopefully addresses some of the issues with the version 1. Unfortunately, the new release video shows nothing but obscure glamor shots, so I'm not sure what changes they made. If they have a more grippy bottom with a larger contact area, ratchet straps, and are slightly lighter, I will try again and raise my bike back up if they meet my needs.

Best product for short riders, gives you allot more confidence on your bike.

I am 5’1 and weigh 145 pounds. I wear a size 5 1/2 shoe. I have a Zh2 and if it wasn’t for this product it would just sit in my garage! Love it gave the exact amount of height on my toes to reach on both sides of the bike. Would recommend to any petite woman or man need some extra reach’! The cut ins are perfect! Never had to lift my feet to shift or break.
