Strengths:
great flat grippy pedals, can take a big beating without failing or bending (axles)good range of colours pretty cheap for how good they are
Weaknesses:
none yet have had a set for 4 years no problems at all and have taken a beating. However have seen grub screws come off friends ones. suggest tighten them from the box when you get it then no hassles (i did this and haven't lost any)
Similar Products Used:
dmr v12 (which are better more grippy) but with 5 tens maybe to grippy at times hence why i bought v8's
Bottom Line:
great cheap pedals

Duration Product Used:
2 Years
Price Paid:
$50.00
Purchased At:
Wiggle UK
Strengths:
Affordable pedals, with loads of grip and a huge platform. Ideal if you like to downhill and hate being clipped in.
Weaknesses:
Shreds skin on contact, destroys shoe soles.
Similar Products Used:
First Alu platform
Bike Setup:
Giant XTC
Bottom Line:
The minor drawbacks I can live with, but unforgivable is how tatty the paintwork (I have the red ones) looks after only a few rides. The body coating does not stand up at all to minor impacts. Not much point worrying about the overhaul kits available as you'll be sick of the sight of the ugly undercoat in no time and will want to bin the things. Consider spending more cash on a set of anodised pedals such as the Crank Bros 5050XX, if you are doing any serious off-roading.
