Strengths: liked them while they lastedWeaknesses: broke and zero customer serviceBottom Line: I like the pedal but always thought the small bearings were a design risk. Turns out I've had them blow out 3 times in 2 years. The last time was a couple of months ago and I've reached out to them half a dozen times for customer service and have never heard back...

Strengths: Same as everyone else says
Supporting a quality upstart company
Made in the USAWeaknesses: Pedal body has come off axle.Bottom Line: Great pedals and I have full confidence in PointOne fixing the problem. After a year a pedal body slid off the axle, the only thing holding the pedal together now is that 3mm allen at the end of the axle.
Time will tell if it's a flawed design, but I've only heard of one other person having this happen.
They still get 5 chillis for now, and mine are off for repair. I'll drop it if PointOne drops the ball on service.

Strengths: Light for what it is
Low Profile
Good Grip
Big platformWeaknesses: A bit $$$Bottom Line: I like these. For outright grip only Straitlines have been better so far, but its not like I have an issue with the amount of grip these offer.
The bigger platform in combination with the pins give more than enough grip and the thin profile means less rock strikes and bangs. They come with extra pins and the correct size allen key. Nice touch.
MUCH better than 5050's. Thinner, wider, flatter than DMR's. Thinner, lighter than Straitline

Strengths: Amazingly Light
Very Low Profile
Great Grip
Wide PlatformWeaknesses: None So FarBottom Line: I am new to platform pedals - I have been using clip-in pedals (Crank Brothers Mallets mainly) for many many years...
I am starting to play around with DJ and Pump Track riding - I had been playing around on my Nomad, but eventually I needed a more appropriate bike for the task...
I can't say I am an expert in platform pedals - as I said, I have been riding clipped-in for many years. I tried the Crank Brothers 50/50 and I thought there was no way I would be able to ride platforms - my feet were coming off the pedals all the time. Then I tried the Point1 Podiums and it's night-n-day different - the Podiums are awesome, the grip is amazing - I forgot that I was not clipped-in.
