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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An Incredible Deal on Incredible Pedals.

These pedals are fantastic for the price.If you're still on factory nylon pedals with no grip pins, you will be looking for a word stronger than "glued" when you try these out.The bearings (this is the three bearing option, as none of the needle roller options fit my build) are smooth, but they can keep the pedal flat when your foot leaves, so you've got somewhere to come back to. That is a major upside for me.The install was very easy, they can be installed with a 15mm wrench or an 8mm Allen, both very common for biking.The nylon bodies are very light, sturdy, and thin. This helps with pedal strikes by a considerable amount.The pins will GRIP your shoes, as long as you arent wearing some of those rigid soled "bike shoes" that aren't intended for flat pedals. They send two extra pins and nuts, which you'll need because they bend easily. I've taken 10 rides on these pedals now, and I broke one pin off on a major rock strike.The nylon holds up well to abrasions, but you will certainly see the edges chewed up if you smack them on a rock or a curb. It's a non issue, as the plastic is colored throughout, so this won't stick out like a sore thumb, akin to allow pedals.Buy these if; you want a solid and sturdy light nylon pedal that grips your shoes like it is meant to, for a very very reasonable price. These are all but RaceFace Chester pedals, which I was able to compare them to on a local bike.Don't buy these if; the name offends you, you want a big name brand price for the same quality, or you just want them to have a name brand logo. Otherwise, you cannot lose, and the upgrade is incredible over stock stompers.
