joe b Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Pins. Cage pedals are f**king shit, the bearings last about a month, the cages last about a week and the bolt threads last about a day. Not worth shit... Get some half-decent platform pedals and you'll be laughing .Cheers,Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyfey Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 (edited) I've got some DMR V8's... nice and grippy and come with a small grub screw which you can remove and inject grease into the bearings Only about £22 as well so they wont hurt your wallet too bad! And they come in different colours if you like the kind of thingPins by the way! Edited February 3, 2007 by fyfey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 DMR V8's Or if you're really tight with money get the V8 copies by wellgo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 revell pedals, mine are 3 years old, battered to f**k, not evenm black anymore, i havent lost one pin, the bearings are really good too, seriously, they are the best, nothing even comes close. £45 is nothing for a set of pedals which are going to last...

Jez Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 DMR V8s or V12s ideally...But I've got a pair of the Wellgo V12 copies that seem to be OK. I've snapped a bit off the back end of one of them, but it barely makes a difference, and it was a SERIOUSLY bad 'up' that did it. The DMR stuff has an extra bit of metal there that will stop this happening though. I think I've also bent one of the shafts, but it could be my poo crank that's bent, haven't bothered to find out.Having said that, I found that the DMR grub screw pins get fooked well easily, where as the Wellgo screw pins seem to last longer (but aren't quite as grippy - good for bailing, yet just grippy enough for riding). The gist of it being: if you bash the hell outta yer pedals, get DMR; if either a) you're on a budget or you bail a lot, get Wellgo. You can get the V12 copies for the same price as the official V8s.

fyfey Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Yeah as I said, I have the V8's and have bailed quite alot (going too far back on backhops etc) and the pins have ripped the shit out of the soles on my shoes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 DMR V8's Or if you're really tight with money get the V8 copies by wellgoNah, REAL V8s all the way! I 've had both and the wellagos just fell apart, there is barely any material left on the body.Whereas the V8s are still there, well they are actually on my scott until the cash for the Zona comes in.

Krisboats Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 I'd recommend the V8 copies i have for sale. Cheap, durable and replacable pins.... plus their a bargain price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_Neal Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Club Roost - The Push. Brilliant pedals. Over a year of use and I've lost one pin! Get them from chain reaction - I know they're a bit pricy but they work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be an old skool rider using the bash plate on anything if that's the case!Had the same pair of V8's for ages, only 1 or 2 pins missing but they're still running fine! deffo the best pedels to get, don't buy them if you're a noob and can't do anything because the pins will come out! - If you ride fine and never hit the pedels these are the best ones. Keep your feet in place, look cool and easy to jump off if you need to... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
