The machine work and CAD design work is very nice. The eggbeater clip is a simple engineering marvel. Weaknesses: The function of these pedals all around is useless.

from Denver, CO, USA Date Reviewed: July 30, 2010 Strengths: Platform plus clipped performance. Adjustable pins for unclipped pedaling. Easy clipping in and out. Weaknesses: I havent found any yet other then having to buy a rebuild kit to change the internals every so often (depending how much you ride and conditions they are used in) instead of being able to just taking it apart to clean and regrease the thing. You can do that with other pedals why not with yours Crank Brotthers?

from Cumberland, MD Date Reviewed: February 15, 2010 Strengths: Platform/clip-ins. Weaknesses: I just checked out the springs and found the left one which I primarily clip into is so rusted it doesn't move, maybe that's why it's been easy to what with my cleats worn down to nothing. Added grease through the port and oiled the outside of the spring, which seemed to work for the right beater (but that was movable)haven't had a chance to check it out yet and been too busy to go down to the basement since I did that. Yes the paint does leech off pretty quickly but they're pedals... Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: fort ord......

from Seattle, WA Date Reviewed: May 31, 2009 Strengths: Very good grip while unclipped compared to competitors, smooth exit, semi-easy entry. Weaknesses: I've broken a few spindles on both this model and the older mallet model. The spring, if clipped on a rock, bends very easily. This makes all 4 sides unavailable to clip into.
