I have Vortex, and I like them. I actually prefer the spiked pegs, because I had my outside foot slip of the slick ones in a rain race while trying to turn in.
Where do you put your feet on the outside?  On the toes or toward the heel?

keep in mind the woodcraft stuff is designed so the stock pegs and brake lever (not sure about shift lever) can still bolt up if you cant find spares and every set of vortex rearsets i've seen crash end up bent if not broken.   
How would you know? you crashed what, once in the last two years? And the only thing that broke was your leg.
Maybe Woodcraft makes one of those.... :spank:

When products are of equal quality always go the direction of the companies that support CCS racers with a contingency program. AND always have your own spares.... :biggrin:

I Like woodcraft too, but the quality could be better.  I realize it is not a nessecity, but I have started running Arata's and these things are engineered.  The roller bearings in the pedals make moving the levers smooth and effertless..  The pegs are designed nicely, and crash well.  But, they are way expensive to buy and expecially fix...  So, make the decision that best suits you...

I've had about everything.  I'm using Graves on my R6 and have had the opportunity of crash testing them a bit and have been incredibly impressed.  I've had a few high-speed crashes and have done nothing but barely grind down the pegs.  I know they aren't super cheap, but they have crashed better than anything I have used, plus for some reason they just seem to shift so much nicer than the other brands I have had on the R6. 

That said, if I was buying new ones I would probably go with woodcraft.  I keep a full spare set of the graves stuff with me because I know I most likely won't find spares at the track for them.
