The steering system is based on the KS-footrests but it’s with larger self pivoted two compound steering pedals.
The steering pedal is connected to the footrest with special flex-joint polymer pivot construction which allows comfort & precise steering quality with any type of rudder. The flex-joint system is totally rust- and carefree in all conditions and there is no jamming possibility thanks to the innovative construction. The steering pedal has a soft and stylish grip in the centre part to prevent slipping and it increases comfort.
The steering ropes adjust automatically when you move the pedals. However the system includes KS-fine adjustment pieces to adjust the ropes in the installation or maintenance phase. The flex-joint steering system is attached to the footrest pedal with two screws which means the steering pedals can be retrofitted easily anytime later to KS-footrests.
