Yeah casting in that BRP peg was not the smartest thing, if it fails your hosed.....they should have made it seperate, replaceable..I seen one guy snap it off and I helped him repair it, he was from Tulsa on this site back in the day "Crixal". Anyway, I'd be real carefull at that attachment and make sure there was a good strong joint there to take the up and down load from the riders weight....short pegs would be better than long. I could not tell how x-factors attached I seen two fitting's that looked welded, plate to tube the nurfs slide over in rear....I'd think twice about netted back guards the more structure the better.....these kids that see these pro's forget they get new stuff on a dime like $1-2,000 frames, unless you got the money...btw this frame does have flex issues, keep your eye on the skid plate close to where the nurfs attach, the alum skid is not enough to take a blow at the nurfs or up and down from the rider, a good nurf with good structure and peg mounted well will help reduce your risk of flexing over time or in a crash.
Pro-armour looks stronger than x-factor to me anyway, I think there are at least two 1/4 bolts through the brp casting and two more through the pegs, good structure for heal guards and plenty of room for my sons size 11.
Just my opinion.
