| FavoriteTrail: | Fort william World cup DH Course |
| Duration Product Used: | 3 months |
| Price Paid: | $100 |
| Purchased At: | Leisurelakes |
| Strengths: | Big, Beefy- loads of grip |
| Weaknesses: | Cheese grater on the shins- cnat ride without shin pads |
| Similar Products Tried: | Kore platforms/ 24seven slacker |
| Bike Setup: | Trek session 77 stock, now running with kore platforms- Michelin Comp S 2.8 rear tyre |
| Bottom Line: | Theese pedals have got x amount of grip. You do need to lift your foot off to re-position. However the pins kept on turning out and dissapearing mid trail. I did a huge jump at llandegla forest , wales- overshot the landing ramp and hit the bank on one side, as my pedal struck the soil (or rock- it all happened so fast), the my toe got trapped, the pedal sheared off the bike at the axel, crushing/ breaking my toe at the same time. Its all good fun, but 6 months later my toe is still mangled |
