Review on 🚲 BV Bike Pedal Set, 9/16-Inch Boron Steel Spindle, Bicycle Pedals - Pair by Pete Norris

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not soft. Bearings are open and ready to collect dirt

Good plastic pedal for children's bicycle. It's cheap so it lacks the features you might expect, it doesn't spin very smoothly. Upon inspection, it turns out that the bearings are open (not covered by a housing or cover) and probably will not withstand dirt. Update: I greased the bearings and put a rubber o-ring over the open hole(!) to seal the open holes. Warehouse. The lube seemed to smooth it out a bit. Improved, but still not as supple as Specialized and Crank Bros pedals. The clumpy, sluggish feel of these pedals won't go away with re-lubrication.

Pros
  • Sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Upgrades
