Post by: lodge on March 21, 2008, 09:00 PM: I love them, I was told that there is two versions, they were supposed to be cheap bike pedals but when odyssey realised that alot of peeps were running them on top end bikes they made em stronger, not sure how to tell which are the new ones. I got mine from Pijin 9.99 posted.
