from Madrid, Spain Date Reviewed: October 18, 2006
Duration Product Used:
Tested or demo'ed only
Price Paid:
$75.00
Purchased At:
OB, Madrid
Strengths:
- Look awesome, BMX style - Sealed bearings! - Amazing White (not many good pedals in this colour) Have seen the pink ones and are incredible too - Long and wide platform but not too big (for anybody with 9-11 feet size) - Great grip; smooth/rough surface with removable pins. - Well built with big holes; mud can be remove easily - Come with a kit of replacement pins - There's a magnesium version, more expensive but lighter < 470 gr, (only in black)
Weaknesses:
- Maybe too expensive (60 €, around 75 $, aluminium) but after see and try them I think they worth it - Difficult to find them out there, but can order by internet
Similar Products Used:
Crank Bros Mallet & 5050, Shimano
Bike Setup:
VP Free, 888 rc2x, Deemax and XT 8" front travel and 8'5" rear
Bottom Line:
First of all I must say that I've only tried them for a few hours, some downhill and street, with several jumps and landings. Therefore I can't answer about durability but is my only fear at this moment, the rest have everything saisfied me. Anyway they look quite strong, give a fantastic grip, well-made with sealed bearings and look really cool. My last pedals have been a pair of Crank Bros Mallet, also in aluminium, with similar weight and white coloured too. Differences: no egg-beater (remember mallet are both, automatic and platform) so it gives you much better grip with regulars; the Mallet give no bad grip with those but only to use ocasionally because of the cleats; similar platform length but wider in the Slim Jim; grip pins. Definately I'm happy with this couple, a good purchase!
