Review on Lightweight Nylon Fiber MTB Pedals: FOOKER 3 Bearing Non-Slip Bicycle Platform For BMX And 9/16"" Mountain Bikes by Mark Meyer

These are knock-off Race Face Chester pedals - but they're just as good and half the price.I had a pair of alloy pedals before this, because every set of (cheap) plastic pedals I'd experienced flexed terrible and broke easily. Those alloys lasted 10 years until I'd worn through all the paint and the metal nubs. They turned into slip'n slides.Given my previous experience, I was skeptical of plastic pedals, even if everyone and their Grandmother love their Chester's. Neither was I a fan of the $60 price tag from my local bike shop (they didn't even have any in stock!).So I was shocked to find out how stiff these pedals are. Glass filled nylon is tough stuff, but it's still plastic and this is a lightweight design. I expected it to flex a little. They are rock solid and feel great.As is the grip. The machine screws lock your foot in place - to the point it's difficult to adjust your position without lifting off the pedal. I was concerned they would be uncomfortable, but I don't notice any pressure points even wearing flip flops.The spindles are thoughtfully designed with large flats so you don't need a stupid specialty wrench to get these on or off, AND there is a hex socket built into the back of the threaded end so can use an allen key if you prefer. Very convenient.A bonus of the plastic design is that the color won't wear away from use or scratches.I used to only ride alloy pedals, but these made a believer out of me. Best pedals I've ever had.
