    I broke a few stock plastic ones before upgrading to the aluminum. Install them with teflon tape and you'll never break em again. You'll still bend shock shafts but that's another story....$13 for 4 caps from Tower, a good investment to keep your Pede lightweight and to save money from going to full-on big-bores which are $50.

    More like $13 for all 4 Big Bore aluminum caps.

    I have heard that little hose clamps will help to strengthen stock caps, but Big Bore caps are probably a better choice.
