Slammin...............yep can see that happening a lot...althought at the speed I'll be moving.........it will be more of a roll/bounce/break >:D

Pins pinged off if you got them anywhere near a pice of coping, I don't grind my pedals, and when I do 50/50s my pedal isn't on the coping, but the occasional miss and the pins just came off.

Post by: hunterdubber on September 26, 2010, 11:54 PM: I've thought about plastic pedals a few times and that's about as far as I've gone :D

just get some Wellgo/DMR mag/ti peds if you want lightness, grippy and reliability in one package

, they'll last forever and look good :coolsmiley:
