Iv always had DMRv8 on mountain bikes and bmx's but iv been riding with that standard caged pedals onza put on there bikes and thyve been pretty good.was wondering what peoples opinions are?I had the try alls for 2 months before i got rid of them. Absolutely vicious pedals if you get a shin digger, rip your leg right open. I switched to some animal platform pedal which are more forgiving and they've been working out fine for me. I would suggest platform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 either vp ( onza/tryall/monty etc ) caged pedals...[remove the inner cage]...or platform pedals, dmrv8/v12s or onza hognesiums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan S Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 DO NOT buy try-alls for 3 reasons.1 - they are absolutely the same as Vp, but with a shiny try-all logo. Don't waste your money.2- they are heavier than platforms3 - if you hit you leg with those, it will be really painful.http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=23These are the best. simple and rather cheap. They should be even lighter than 370. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogo Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Cages, cheap, cheerful and i've had the same pair for ages and an added bonus is that you don't have to replace the pins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigjames Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 MG-1's, awesome pedals, just replaced my first pair that I've had for about 18 months and that was purely for vanity reasons. Nice and light and very grippy. Just about the only pedals I'd consider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
