from Boise Date Reviewed: February 29, 2008 Strengths: Light for a flatpedal. Spins nicely after 2 years. Looks svelte. Found it for a good price. Weaknesses: Comes with extremely short pins installed--you have to take 15 min to change them to the included "long" ones. Even those would be small for some riders. A few pins on the corners have been sheared off from striking rocks hard at speed. This wouldn't happen with the odysseys I once had. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Smooth rolling singletrack with vegetation! Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $50.00 Purchased At: auction Similar Products Used: Odyssey twisted. Beefier non-removable pins. Otherwise they were heavier and probably wouldn't spin as smoothly for as long. Bike Setup: 26" wheeled xc singlespeed and semislick tires--My commuter and short-ride bike.

from Jakarta Date Reviewed: September 24, 2006 Strengths: Great Looking, Light, Very Grippy... Weaknesses: Although I never hit the pedals on anything hard yet, since the pins are small and tiny, it might be hard to change the pins if they get bashed. Durability is still in question... Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $44.00 Similar Products Used: Wellgo LU-998 (small platform hence very unstable when jumping off), Truvativ Hussefelt (big stable platform but very slippery). Bike Setup: Giant Faith 3

from Los Angeles, CA USA Date Reviewed: February 14, 2005 Strengths: Can take a pretty good beating. I've taken it from street riding to some really good off-road. Between bikes I've owned, this is one thing I've continued to keep. Weaknesses: The socket screws break off easy and gradually come out. Shimano wanted to charge and arm and leg for replacements ($20.00 for 15 screws!). Found them at a local hardware store here (OSH), and was able to have a choice of lengths too. $.39 per three screws. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $100.00 Purchased At: bike shop in Las Vegas (don't recal the name) Similar Products Used: As for platforms, the original shimano platform, Haro. Bike Setup: Giant NRS, Easton EC70 bar/post, Selle San Marcos, XTR M960, XT on the rest, CrossMax SL disc, Magura Louis, Marzocchi. Going back to hard tail. Trying Fetish D & S frame next.
