News in from DayLife

They are working on a blog too : HERE. so check back in a couple of days for new news.


Daylife will be making 7075 and 6082 marine grade alu sprockets in different sizes and colours. You can expect them around next week. prices for parts coming soon.

Seems like the "fountain" stem is holding up to Werner M's beating. No problems yet, although we are busy with a bit of tweaking here and there. (rounding some edges of and might split the front end) .
When Werner M is done testing his stem, it will be past on to Basil for further demolishing.
That's all for now

Maitland edit

I filmed this the other day in about 90mins. The Dayife pegs rule and my Salvo frame is great.

DayLife "Fountain" Stem preview (updated)

Updated info: "This is the prototype Werner Matthee sig FOUNTAIN stem from DayLife. made out of 6082 alu by Werner Hendrich at GS Tool and Die. . Sprockets and front hubs coming soon. stay tuned"

This has been under wraps for a little while but some rumours have been floating around. Well here it is, the DayLife stem. I'll post all the technical info later, because nobody ever reads this stuff anyway, but for now just take look and enjoy. To order this and other DayLife parts call Werner at 076 744 3592.

After using the DayLife pegs for over 2 months and enjoying every grind and stall, I am really excited to give this a try. The pegs RULE and I think they are the best pegs I have ever used. BUY SOME, you won't be sorry.

James edit!

This got cut short due to bad weather, corrupted tapes and lack of time. I'll be doing an edit for Salvo next week, once I get the MP frame I'm test riding for them. That edit will be abit more burly than this one. Enjoy.

DayLife in action?

Daylife Pegs from WC BMX on Vimeo.

Shot and edited on a Sony Ericsson. Daylife's new Nylon covered Alloy pegs tested on a rough brick ledge during my lunch break.



Werner's been getting lots of calls, emails and orders for the DayLife pegs and at least one mailorder has shown interest, which means that guys outside of Cape Town should be able to get these soon too. Here's a quick edit of the pegs in action. These slide so well on brick and are like lightning on coping.

Werner, work with GS Tool and Die, is also working on prototypes of full CNC'ed stem's, barends and some other little secrets. Stay tuned.

DayLife Alloy/Plastic Pegs! (info and price updated)

Are you looking for a plastic peg, that you can use for park and light street, without fearing about them breaking in half? Well here they are! Daylife's first product, the Alloy/Plastic pegs.


This is the completed product from Werner Hendrich at Daylife, made through GS Tool and Die, and I must say I am impressed. These are well made, light (135gr for 100mm) and even after only a couple of grinds at Gen-X today, I can already say that these will last.

Werner can make these in 85mm, 90mm and 100mm lengths and has multiple colour options too (Low friction nylon sleeves in Black, Red, Green, White and Yellow. Alloy cores in Anodised Blue, Gold, Bronze, Black, Natural and Green). Mix and match to suit your tastes.

Price is R299 a pair! Bargain! Contact Werner on FB for more info.


Park friendly and smoother sliding on just about every surface you could ever want to grind.

Equipped and ready to grind!

DayLife Peg sneak peak.

I just got this photo from Werner of DayLife showing the anodised cores of their new pegs. These will have a "low friction polyurethane" sleeve that will be pressure fitted around them, making a nice, light weight park peg. Made in Cape Town! Prices coming soon! (The 4 long ones are mine!)
