lankyri Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 ok hear me out before you say its a new memembers post but i have a good reason i have only had 1 set of pedals in my trials life the dmr v12 think it was a great pedal considering i have had them for like 4 years and only lost 1 pin and as i sold my bike and building up a new bike i want some new pedals is it worth forking out alot of money for the pedal that i have already used or shall i go and get some vp cage pedalsalso if you can find me a white pedal which aint that expensive please let me know cheers rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugh_b Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 i'm using the magnesium wellgo pedals, these are the same as the onza ones and a few other makes-think they are "pattern pedal". I'm pretty sure ive seen these around in white. they also weight bugger all and ar pretty sturdy. I have been riding uci on my 26" though but they have had some nasty nocks but they are holding up good-touch wood lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 if the v12s lasted you 4 years and you liked them BUY MORE V12s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_Fel Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 if it ain't broke don't fix it.VPs are a big fat pile of bum holes.Wellgos are dece but mag is very soft and the pins fall out rather easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Kennard Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 whoa there, make sure you have a look at the revell pedals, mine are 3 years old, havent even lost a pin and have a nice large platform, the bearings are like new too with no maintenance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lankyri Posted March 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 i did see them on tarty bikes actually ash but didnt know if anyone road them but il keep them in mind actually lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalf the Yellow Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 if depends if you want large platforms or if you're used to the small(ish) of the DMR's, i feel they're too small and i loose the pins quite easily and the pedal body (even the alloy one has cracked)if you're after a bigger platform i would definately recommend gusset slim jims' and get the magnesium for the extra tenner, it somewhat superlight, no pin loss, fully sealed and feel real nice on the feet.the pins aren't grub screws but they have a larger 'bolt' fixed on the underside of the pedal, so the pins are stronger and easy to tighten, and it comes with a sticker sheet with nuff spare pins! (don't think i'll ever get to use them though!)£45 from tartybikessteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 i did see them on tarty bikes actually ash but didnt know if anyone road them but il keep them in mind actually lolahh right, me, t-limburn, prawn, mr doney, daz, and one of the tarty lads use them, so they cant be too bad can theyfor the first 5 names i can vouch for there being absolutely no problems at all atm.

Dan6061 Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 Just bought some Slim Jims recently..lost pretty much all the grub screw pins on one side of the left pedal...Wish I loctited them in now.. - Must find the spares...Apart from that, they're awesome. Prefer them to the V8's I've had. Nice big platform for my big feet, slim design (obviously)etc..Pretty much what Steve said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVWOCI WVS Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 Just bought some Slim Jims recentlyi used these on a bmx and they were awesomely grippy and felt really good...also they are one of the only cheapish pedals available in white with sealed bearings...buy them!
