I am in the middle of a rebuild of a 241 Progress 2 and have had the frame powder coated before welding on the U-shaped peg mounts which I usually do.  Now I wish I had! 

Does anyone know of any wide foot pegs on the market which will mount directly to the through the frame type male lug on a Fantic?

B&J racing sell some weld on footpeg extensions that might work for you ...

 

Bad photo , but you get the 2 top serrated loops and adjust and weld them to your stock pegs.

Good luck , I don't know of anything that fits the stock early fantics...

Could you make a bracket which fits through the standard mount but has a U mount on the outside to take wide pegs, or possibly modify standard footrests to do the same thing? 

Hi

There's a pair for sale on Australian ebay, have a look, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/252304786021

Yep, those are the ones I have that have come off the bike. I knew about the weld on extensions I just wondered whether someone was making a modern wide peg for the old "male" brackets but it seems not.

Thanks for the replies though.

 

I have had a crazy thought!!!

I'm thinking of swapping the left mount for the right mount and having the lug go into the frame slot from the outside and bolted on in the same holes I could then weld the U-brackets to fit modern pegs onto the back of the mount instead of the front.

If you know what I mean?

I just need to check how much clearance there is inside the frame before hitting the swing arm but, by my way of thinking even if I have to shorten the lug so it just goes through the frame slot, that and the two bolts will be perfectly strong enough.

I'll let you know if this is a goer or not.

I'm not familiar with the way they mount on your frame, but based on projects I've done before modifying the standard mounts has got to be the easiest way. Most of the work is already done for you.
