Title: Pedals
Post by: tobytyke on July 11, 2010, 09:49 PM
This is the last piece in the jigsaw for my build, need some pedals but a little uncertain on what type to get, i will be riding the bike but would still like something decent, seen jtsmooth sells the kkt for £15, it is more colour choice as  the build is a baby blue,white & pink colour scheme,..... cmom guys & gals you've seen loadsa bikes, what would be suitable ??  :-\

It's hard to suggest which part gest picked for which colour
 without seeing the bike to see which colours you've already used and where. :-\

This is if you're going to the trouble of getting the balance right  :)

You're better off looking at bikes in the museum section
not neccesarily the same make , but  the similar colour choice to give you some idea  ;)

White pedals will be the easiest to get Lee  .

Although if it looks better with pink or baby blue peds get em re painted , at least its not a re annodising job  ;)

Yeah the welgo are good and if you scratch them when you wipe out you are not found to be bothered. I know nothing about the db pedals but for that money you can't go wrong it all depends on what you like :daumenhoch:

Why not get some Victor DX ?

Pretty much exact shimano DX clones - great rider pedals, usually find them cheap enough and proper old school too  :)

just remember to get the right thread size  (1/2" OPC & 9/16" 3PC) :daumenhoch:

Silver/Chrome would be neutral enough
