Favorite Trail:
urban/freeride
Duration Product Used:
6 months
Strengths:
-Strong - Look real mean -Very grippy - Cheap, $40 Canadian. -Smooth bearings
Weaknesses:
- Pins fall out very quickly - Not many pins to begin with - Due to the block shape they don't stay positioned under your feet very well - Worst possible shin gougers, but I don't really care
Similar Products Used:
Specialized flats, DX flats, cheap Wellgo flats, Sun Ringle flats, S&M flats, etc.
Bike Setup:
'98 K2 Beast XT/LX (with a beautiful Azonic Love Seat)
Bottom Line:
These pedals are pretty good. I've seen them on some expensive bikes, but that doesn't say much. They are by no means as grippy as DX or S&M flats(my next pedals), but with the right shoes they are plenty sticky. Awesome value, except for the pins, which I replaced with slightly larger hardware store pins with LocTite. 3 1/2 flamin XC clipless pedals for these sweet flats, but I rounded up to 4.
