    Favoriate Trail:boulder
    Duration Product Used:6 months
    Price Paid: $65.00
    Purchased At:ebay
    Strengths:Sweet looking, Grips like crazy, bearings are resistant so the pedals wont spin much, lightweight, large surface area
    Weaknesses:Bolts rust after first wash, they will sting your shins and leave you bleeding in a heartbeat, on the expensive side, will ruin the bottom of your shoes over time.
    Bike Setup:Fly 9357, carbon juicy, xr, xtr, richey stem/bar
    Bottom Line:These pedals look great, lots of surface area and are great for urban stuff, as for trails once again they perform great but dont let the cranks spin because these pedals will remind your shins that they are there and you will have scars for months. They are super light for their size. Even when your shoes get wet they still grab like crazy. I was disappointed after I washed the bike the first time I had the pedals on only to find all of the bolts had rust on them like you would see on your discs brakes on your car after it has sat for a few days after a rain. I had to take a rust converter that turns into a black primer to take care of the rust.
