Strengths: Look pretty sweet and have beefy constructionWeaknesses: X feels bad underneathe normal skate shoes. Might work with boots or sneakers.Bottom Line: Not so good for street or dirt jupms. The X looks cool but it is kind of unpredictable if you're moving your foot around a lot. Sometimes you can, sometimes you can't. You can feel the shape on landings which sucks. I'd rather just have a big square platform.
Probably ok for downhill or something where you use a lighter shoe and don't have to readjust.

Strengths: Sealed tight, clingy like a crazy x girlfriend, strong like a foxWeaknesses: uh. i get dirt in the outter hex hole. nothing some TLC with a toothbrush wont fix tho.Bottom Line: Pretty kick ass. the paint has stayed on so far. They dont need to be serviced, and they give u some extra room from the crank so u dont wear off any paint or click ur ankle.

Strengths: great working pedal with sealed bearings and replasable pins that wont set you back on your funds.Weaknesses: noneBottom Line: get this pedals if you ride, because the are light, look good and work good. Get some ship guards because if you catch one of this pedals with your shin it will hurt.

from Richmond, VADate Reviewed: September 4, 2006
Strengths: Rock solid, cool looks, excellent grip, DURABILITYWeaknesses: Lost a few pins in the beginning, then made a trip to the hardware store and got a bag of longer pins (4 bucks) and cranked 'em all the way down. Haven't lost a single one since. Longer pins make 'em grip like hell anyway.Bottom Line: I'm about 200 lbs, hardcore freerider and I've got two seasons of DH, FR, trails and urban on these things and they still feel like new. I've cased jumps and harsh drops that I thought would bend the axle for sure but they're perfectly straight, still spin smooth and silent and have no play what so ever. Not to mention a good rinse with the garden hose and they still look sweet.
I recommend 'em for serious riders but newb's be careful cause if you slip they'll definately bite you. Best traction and most reliable pedal I've ever had. You don't have to spend $100+ to get good pedals. I'd buy another pair.

Strengths: Grips well, Large platform, affordable quality, takes a beating, stylish/unique look, 470 grams.Weaknesses: Will tear up shoes. And give you some bad pedal bite. You might end up taking some mud home.Bottom Line: These pedals will not let go. They keep your feet exactly where you placed them. They will tear up soft rubber shoes. But not drasticly. And if you ever slip your pedal be careful, as they will leave a nasty claw mark.
After a few months of riding these pedals have taken a beating against rocks, logs and a few falls, being left out in the rain, and riding through dirt, mud and sandy trails and they still perform flawless. The bearings spin free and the pins are still in place.
These pedals also have a unique look. At first I was unsure about there being some platform missing at the front and rear. But it's a moot point. You don't even notice it. The spaces in the pedal do hold mud. But a poke with your finger will knock it out easy.
Overall these pedals are excellently designed and worth the cash.

Strengths: This review is for the Mountain X the big brother to the xtension. They give you a large solid platform to place your foot. They give you good footing climbing and descending. The fact that the make you work harder than clipless or pedals with clips is a plus in my opinion..you get a better workoutWeaknesses: NoneBottom Line: They've taken rock hits without even scratching, They spin well, They look sweeeeet. If you buy them you will like them. I believe they will do a great job for XC, FR and DH.

Strengths: thin profile, look very cool and is very grippyWeaknesses: noneBottom Line: I had a gift certificate to Wheel World that was about 4 years old and it was burning a hole in my pocket. I had checked out these pedals before, so when my Atomlabs (my second pair) died I bought these. To my surprise, they feel great, they are light and durable. I'm only giving this 4 chilis because I don't know the lifespan of this product yet.

Strengths: Great look, light weight, great traction.Weaknesses: Tears up the soles of your shoes with use on trails.Bottom Line: These pedals are great for the tough ride, great grip and they look cool as hell. They tear up the shoes a little and no clips require some extra leg power, but that's just a small item.
