Puig - ergonomics meet technology
Successful on the track again in 2020 as a technical partner (screens) to the Kawasaki WSBK team (Jonathan Rea - six-time WSBK Champion), internationally recognised Spanish manufacturer Puig Hi-Tech Parts has designed a new adjustable footpeg system.
Compatible with all Puig footpegs, driver and passenger footpeg position can easily be improved for comfort and ergonomics - either for a sportier position, improved legroom or a more relaxed riding position.
By purchasing the new adjustable footpeg adapter together with the displacer, the pegs can be set to either 20 or 40 mm of displacement.
The 20 mm shifter has been designed for both driver and passenger, while the 40 mm shifter focuses on the position of the passenger. Both displacers are universal and the adjustable footpeg adapter is motorcycle model specific.
Once the adapter and the displacer are installed, the system allows the footrest to be adjusted 360 degrees, in 15-degree inclination intervals, both up and down.
For dealers who know their customers, the new 3.0 lever counter display allows parts sales staff to showcase the four available models of Puig Hi-Tech Parts' levers - fixed, folding, short and extendable folding - allowing the customer to check which one suits his needs since the elements of the lever, selector and extension can be customised to suit the buyer's needs.
"Finished in metallic black, any selection of the total of seven available colour options will look good. Image is important, it makes a real difference, and we here at Puig want to help you win over your buyer".
Also seen here, Puig says it thinks the vintage trend is here to stay and that these new 'Look' rearview mirrors give a "unique and characteristically retro touch".
Developed in-house at its Barcelona headquarters, it is manufactured from a machined and anodised aluminium block in black and silver. Its durable finish will fit with the majority of models on the market and will stand up to a lot of bad weather and many thousands of hard miles.
The dimensions are 115 mm x 51 mm, "with a surface that offers good visibility and rear security. The universal fixing mechanism allows the head of the piece to be placed in an upper or lower position, below the handlebar. Thanks to the ball joint behind the reflective surface, you can effortlessly adjust the mirror while driving". It ships with all necessary hardware for mounting on handlebars with an internal diameter of 13 mm up to 18 mm. Adapters from the Puig catalogue are available for other sizes.
Finally, this new 'Tower' sequential turn signal is an example of "democratising technology", the company says! "Cutting-edge LED technology and a design in line with the latest launches in the two-wheel market characterise this latest specific product from our in-house laboratories and test benches.
"Available for a diverse range of bikes, it is a great example of contemporary design with a modern, glazed, arrow-like aesthetic. Thanks to the use of advanced LED modules, it improves the quality of the light beam and mimics the latest sequential, directional activation trend seen in automotive lights".
