Description:An aluminum body and cage highlight the B25 from Wellgo. It's lightweight, yet with a chromoly spindle it's durable enough to handle whatever you can dish out.

Aurobindo Place/ Green park/ Uppar/ Bhikhaji Cama Place (all local India)
Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Purchased At:
Bike Hauz (Singapore
Strengths:
The pedal is extremely grippy. Usually pins are so long that they rip up your shoe, but in this case you cant even move your foot so they just dig in and stay. It looks great, easy to clean, smooth, and very very light
Weaknesses:
They trap dirt, but because it doesn't have a concave or curvy design you can just wipe it out. They also dig into ledges when you grind.
Similar Products Used:
Wellgo molded (unsealed with no pins lol), Mosh Step up (the right one cracked in half after a few months, I'm not even pegless). I also have a tattoo of their logo on my wrist but wtvr.
Bike Setup:
Eastern, Mosh, Demolition, serfas, Kenda, Wellgo, Odyssey, and SE Racing.
Bottom Line:
Strong, light, smooth, cheap (I think), and grippy as hell.

Bottom Line:
these pedals work great. I wasnt sure what to expect for the price but they are very good. My feet do not budge at all when riding on the street, a trail or singletrack. Also, no frills here. No fancy inserts or colors. Just pedals that work. I am relatively new to the sport so I havent tried alot of products. However this product seems very well made and so far i am very pleased.

Strengths:
This is a shockingly good pedal. It has functioned better that pedals that have cost more than twice as much. It has been tougher. It has a feel that I have really grown to love.
Weaknesses:
Some of the pins are not replaceable. It is not "stylish".

Bottom Line:
The cheapest, toughest flat pedal I've found. One of the MTB products I have been happiest with.
