ABSTRACT:
A freestyle bicycle is provided with removable foot peg bosses that allow a rider to selectively attach and detach foot pegs on the legs of a bicycle fork. By providing the foot peg bosses as removable structures, uncomfortable outwardly projecting protrusions in the form of unused peg bosses which are characteristic of conventional foot peg systems are eliminated. A bolt is utilized to clamp the transverse end wall of a foot peg against a corresponding bearing surface of a removable foot peg boss while concurrently attaching the foot peg boss to the distal end of a selected fork leg. The shank of the bolt is threadably engageable with and disengageable from a peg boss support barrel that is mounted transversely within the tubular structure of a bicycle fork leg.
