Here is the sate of the pedal:Now, am I just a heavy, heavy rider or do t-bird pedals usually go this way after a a bit? What do you guys recomend as a replacement pedal?

mod 92 Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 hello i did the same on my t-bird as well and i got the onza v-p and make sure that you keep the bolts up tite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blinky Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Yes, standard onza pedals seem to do this a lot. A good replacement would be either some Onza shindigs or some DMR V8's. The DMR's are good as you can get replacement bearings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt! Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 v8 are good not to heavy, but the pins seem to go quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCongreve Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 The only reason that's gone like that is because the bolts have come un-done, which secure the cage part that has came off in your case. I have seen soooo many new local riders complain their pedals are crap, it's just they didn't do the bolts up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tricalum Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Those type of pedals usually do that, depending on how hard your riding and what your bashing them on. I had quite a few light pedals like that and they all seem to brake quite quickly when you dont ride UCI style, i.e using them to get up stuf, hitting them on walls ect.Iv now got a bmx pedal on my left and a cage like that yours on my right, which works well. The bmx pedal wont brake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG L Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 i had them on my t pro they are really s*** arnt they !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 I had 2 pairs of them and they lasted about 2 months each before i finally realised how crap they are for street biu. Get some dmr v8/12's or wellgo copies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
