Review on ๐Ÿšด Experience Efficient and Comfortable Cycling with WILE Road Bike Platform Pedals: Flat Aluminium Alloy Bicycle Pedals by Kyle Hong

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Solid pedals, great grip

I installed these in place of my old nylon pedals about two weeks ago and the difference was amazing. First another minus, there is a lateral displacement of the left pedal on the bearing, which appeared after about 200 km. It doesn't appear to be a problem, but the right pedal doesn't show the same mechanical failure. That being said, I can agree with some users that it felt a little stiff when first installed. It clears up immediately, maybe after 50 miles, and now they're turning pretty well. The concave shape offers amazing comfort and the "teeth" offer amazing grip. I usually ride vans or vans and sometimes it feels like my shoes are stuck to the pedal. Add to this that they are very light and can be tightened with a standard 6mm allen key OR a pedal wrench and this is a great buy at the moment. Rating changed from ***** to ***. The page shift problem escalated with continued use. Both pedals now show the problem, but worse, both now make a grinding noise in the axle. I've played around with it a bit and it looks like the bearings are either worn out or dirty but I haven't been able to get inside to check. The knocking is very annoying. I'll probably replace it with something from another company.
