Strengths: Fairly light, strong and amazing gripWeaknesses: None so farBottom Line: Dope pedals for the price. I got camo ones as they were the only ones that would suit my paint scheme. They look awesome and the camo would suit most bikes. They are light for a strong platform pedal. Bearings feel ultra smooth. So much grip i struggled to reposition my foot at first and will probably wind down the studs slightly to make it a little easier.

Strengths: big, heaps of grip, nice color ( orange ), feels strong.Weaknesses: bearings have started giving up a bit, One pedal wobbles alot.Bottom Line: The bearings gave up because i thrash my bike on rutty tracks. If your thinking of these for a fully go for it, but if ur thrashin your bike there is probably better choices

Strengths: Grippy and wideWeaknesses: Bearings and customer serviceBottom Line: Looking for my first flat pedal and picked the wrong ones. DO NOT GET THIS PEDAL. Pedal's internals get loose in first ride and hard to adjust, now they bang around. Bearings went in first ride!!!!
No customer service, you are unable to contact FUNN except by MY SPACE??? What is up with that? When they did email me a couple of weeks ago they would not help out. Would not recommend these to anyone!!!

Strengths: Weight / strength, grip.Weaknesses: Bad bearings - worn out quick. Pins are tough to get out when the top get ground down. I prefer to be able to remove from the bottom, not the top.Bottom Line: Bearings wore out way too fast. Pedals are now garbage after 6 months. Going to put my 3 year old Kona's back on. Couldn't replace some of the pins since the tops got ground down. Had to use pliers, just a pain.
They will rip the crap out of your shins but that isn't the pedals fault.
Great grip, but lots of pedals have a good grip - and good bearings.

Strengths: GrippyWeaknesses: Weak internal constructionBottom Line: I was all hyped up about these pedals and they worked fine for the first ride and then it all went down hill. After the third ride they siezed up and then got loose right away. They are already tightened all the way and they rattle and creak. Very hard time reaching company through MY SPACE, ..when they did write back they say it is a product malfunction but would not help..ponded it off on the distributor or place where they were purchased. Contacted distributor..stated contact Universal Cycles, emailed them....still waiting for a response... No support. Would not recommend!!!!!!

Strengths: Sound construction, simplistic design, 3M gritty grip tape, big pins and sealed bearings all work to make this the most confidence inspiring flat pedal that is not extreme like BMW Shin Burgers.Weaknesses: nadaBottom Line: I give this product top chillies. Cos I have used em' for a full season of racing and weekend playing without any issues. These are the sealed bearing version and has been used in horrid wet and muddy conditions, never have the pedals had any mechanical issues nor has my foot slipped other than due to my shoe falling apart. (they were old to start with but the pedal chewed them out) I now have a pair of five tens sticky shoes and I gotta say the combination rocks! Get them, you wont be disappointed.

Strengths: They are huge. My feet have never slipped off the whole time ive been ridin them. The grip tape in the middle of them is sick as.Weaknesses: Lost a couple of pins, can mess up your shins pretty goodBottom Line: Easily the best pedals i have ever ridden. The pins on them a massive and the grip tape in the middle is an awesome touch. Whatever i hit i know that my feet will not slip off these badboys. They have absolutely no play in them and the are smooth as. Definately recommend them to anyone.

Strengths: the things are massive, the grip like none other... theyre beefy as hell. what else do you need? they may be a little heavy, but ive yet to see a larger pedal, and though they look like a gory shinburger waiting to happen, youll almost never blow these pedalsWeaknesses: you have to pop them open and tighten the nut inside hear and there because they develop play over time, but other than that noneBottom Line: absolutly worth your money, i love em
