Submitted by Jordan X a Weekend Warrior from Canada
Date Reviewed: September 16, 2001
Favorite Trail:The one with the trees
Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
Price Paid: $30.00
Purchased At:Rider's Cycles
Strengths:Nice and big. Very grippy. The pegs provide great gripping but...
Weaknesses:...it hurts like hell when they hit you in the shins! Since I got these pedals my shins have been a mess of blood and cuts...I STRONGLY suggest wearing leg armour while using these pedals
Similar Products Used:some crappy Specialized pedals
Bike Setup:'01 Specialized Hardrock A1 FS all stock except for Bontrager Crowbars, Oury grips, and Fishbone platfrom pedals.
Bottom Line:A great platform pedal for a great price. I payed $30 for these and my friend payed $80 for a different set and they work just as good as his. I recommend getting them right away, just wear leg armour when you go riding:)

Great pedals!

Submitted by Brian Bolden a Weekend Warrior from Abbotsford B.C. Canada
Date Reviewed: November 29, 2000
Favorite Trail:Any at Ledgeview
Duration Product Used:3 months
Price Paid: $19.00
Purchased At:The Bike Shop
Strengths:Large size is a true bonus. Also these pedals are extremely "sticky" due to the Studs that protrude from the surface. This is great when it is wet out. I also enjoy the ability to put your foot down if need be when the going gets nasty.
Weaknesses:It hurts like hell to take one of these in the shin. Leg armor is a good idea.
Similar Products Used:pedals of all sorts
Bike Setup:Diamondback Response with very little original equipment left on it.
Bottom Line:I love platform pedals. Once you are used to them the fact that you are not attached to them, you become very comfortable. Still have great control in all riding conditions, actually probably more control.
