Look for the nerfbar/heelguard combo's on eBay! They have some sweet ass looking design's & different colors to choose from (mostly black or chrome or even both) and no they are not cheap (if you buy new) but you can't really put a price on quality & safety... As already stated before just ask AWK08 and alot of other members/rider what happens w/o them. I'm saving up for my pair now since I've had quite a few scares while fooling & jumping my blasty on a bmx course in the woods near my house. I already have the exact pair picked out It's just a matter of Saving up the rest up.
