  • look you've just made a pair of those!


    Hasn't looked like a snappage incident, the nut probably worked it's way loose, you blatantly could re-build them, there is the technology...

    I heard CB pedals have a very similar clip-in mechanism!

    i think they broke at the thread, the bearings and bolt were never to be seen again anyway.

    Got a better set of flats for now just to keep me going till i get some SPDs in the summer.
