How about these frame sliders...?
i need some frame sliders for my bike, and i came across these.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...&rd=1
i especially like how they have the turn signals integrated into them for a much cleaner look, but how will these fair up if i do indeed drop my bike? protection is more important to me rather then having integrated turn signals. if anyone can chime in that'd be great.

Can get better for far cheaper. Go with something that has a reputation for saving a bike..
Like graves. Yeah, i have them, but i did the research, and feel comfortable.

The best frame sliders aren't gonna do **** for you if you hit gravel.. remember that.
Also, even cheap sliders usually don't fail on asphalt. The part that tends to brake off is the bolt heads.
I'd suggest you invest in titanium or some stainless steel bolts for extra security.
BTW, focking lights in your sliders? wtf man? 1st of all, that's ghey as fock and second, less dense your slider is (cavity for lights and such), most likely means less durability and abrasion resistance.

yep, thats the downside to kawis is the fact that the bolt that holds the frame slider is small.
that is a good point, but my bike currently doesn't have any turn signals anyways. not like i'm buying these for the LED light bling. if not these sliders, can anyone suggest a better brand to go with instead?
