    You sure you really want them ? I got a pair as standard with my BadBoy and used them for the London->Cambridge. By the time I got to Cambridge the rubber feet on them had worn off in a number of places on both pedals. I'm swapping them out from my DMR v12 pedals as soon as I get a chance.

    Ive got a pair of DMR (but the steel ones not mg) but they are heavy & ugly.
    thought octopus pedals would be lighter and better looking.

    have problem with standard platform pedals in the rain (foot keeps slipping off). thought the octopus pedals would solve this without being quite as over the top as mtb pedals

    dont like riding clipless on london commute -too much stopping and starting

    Our tandem came with these. They've only been used a couple of times, so you can pm me if you're interested in a pair. I don't think they are grippy at all though, so if you haven't used them before, I wouldn't bother.

    ummm, these arent getting v good reviews.
    anyone else out there tried the cannondale octopus pedals? are they more or less grippy than a standard (not mtb spiked) metal platform pedal

    Hi APIII
    would like to try these pedals. What does "pm me" (in your message) mean?
    thanks
    newbie
