Abstract

Described is a foot peg with a roller for attaching with a cycle. The foot peg comprises a roller, a rigid housing, and a support member. The roller includes an axial length with a hole passing through the roller along the axial length. The rigid housing is formed to be attached with a cycle and cover a portion of the roller. When attached proximate the roller, the rigid housing covers a covered portion of the roller, leaving an uncovered portion of the roller exposed. The support member is formed to be attached with the rigid housing and extend through the hole of the roller, thereby attaching the roller proximate the housing. When the foot peg is attached with a cycle, a user may stand upon the rigid housing and/or use the uncovered portion of the roller to roll the cycle across an obstacle.
