LA Choppers Shift Peg
LA Choppers Shift Pegs: American-Made Control at Your Toe
The shift peg is one of the most frequently touched parts on a motorcycle, and it rarely gets the attention it deserves. LA Choppers has been building handlebars and control components in Los Angeles since 1993, and its shift pegs reflect that same control-first mindset. Rather than treating the peg as an afterthought, the company offers options that address two very different rider needs: easier reach and a cleaner custom look.
Extended Delrin Shift Peg
The best-known LA Choppers option is the Extended Delrin Shift Peg. It measures approximately 3-1/2 inches long, giving the rider a longer target to find with the toe, which is especially helpful for taller riders, riders in larger boots, or anyone running forward floorboard extensions. The peg is molded from Delrin, a durable engineering plastic chosen so the part keeps a factory-style appearance while standing up to repeated use. A chrome mounting bolt is included, and the peg is made in the USA. It is designed for modern Harley-Davidson shift arms that use a 5/16"-24 mounting hole, so it is worth confirming your shifter thread before ordering. Riders sometimes note that hard plastic can feel slick in wet conditions, so pairing it with boots that have good sole grip is a sensible choice.
County Line Billet Shift Peg
For riders who want a more custom, machined look, the County Line Shift Peg takes a different approach. It is made from 6061 aluminum billet with a knurled design that provides positive grip without being harsh on boot soles. It is an exact replacement for the stock shifter peg at stock length and works with mid controls. It fits Harley-Davidson models with 5/16-24 threaded shifters, and the hardware needed for installation is included. The County Line name ties into a wider LA Choppers family of billet accessories, including matching footpegs, floorboards, and grips, so it is easy to build a coordinated set of controls. The peg is offered in finishes such as raw, black, and chrome, letting you match existing hardware on the bike.
Choosing Between the Two
- Reach and comfort: the extended Delrin peg gives a longer lever for easier shifting.
- Styling and grip: the County Line billet peg offers a knurled aluminum surface and a stock-length, clean-lined look.
- Fitment: both are intended for Harley-Davidson shifters with a 5/16-24 thread, so check your model and shift arm.
- Origin: both are made in the USA, consistent with the brand's in-house Los Angeles manufacturing.
Because shift pegs are simple bolt-on parts, they are among the most approachable upgrades for fine-tuning how a bike feels.
