They are right around 1.5", which is in line with most plastics and some steels.

I should clarify that I mostly ride skatepark (i.e., coping).  Most of the wear I see is on the outside whre I lean over too much and hit concrete.

sans.terre:
just found this setup - exactly the lip im looking to avoid.
& i hate that 3/4ts bit. as you said, end of the shell is going to turn into a dagger looking to cut me deep the first chance it gets.

This is the best pic I have of the pegs on my bike.  I don't know what bike you have, but I think my dropouts are maybe a little bigger than most dropouts.  They are definately slightly bigger than my ATF dropouts were, but the distance from the bottom of the dropout to the axle was about the same.

sans.terre:
thanks for your time, boys - i appreciate it. just got this one snapped. it hits perfect, i thinkkkk its an fbm peg and with a ruler i get like 35mm flush.



also: dat ass

sans.terre:

of course they dont make butter pegs (35mm)  or federal (34mm) in long versions.


4.5" peg hitting at 35mm? damn.
