Pedals...

The Northern Monkey

So my Wellgo MG1's haven't held out too well in this gritty Welsh mud.

The internal seal/sleeve has split causing it to not spin and it won't hold any grease now so i'm not happy. :evil:

So I have to get some new pedals.

Do I take a punt at some more MG1's or try something else?

Annoying thing is that my oooooold Gusset Slim Jims are still buttery smooth. Had them about 3 years, lots of riding and had no issues at all. I've put them on the Boardman for now, but they're missing a few pins and a bit heavy.

So i'm thinking of going for the magnesium version of the Gusset.... but they're £40-£45...

Anything cheaper and as light apart from MG1's?

Can you get new seals for the pedals you have now?

The Northern Monkey

I don't think so... seen some spares on Ebay, but it doesn't include what I need and it was £16!

superstar pedals, from my experience are just as good as everyone raves about, mine look like I found them they are that battered! but they are still as silky smooth as the day i bought them, after a lot of miles being covered in all sorts of conditions

I was initially going to pickup the MG-1`s but i fancied something a little different put some of these on my B-Pro, them seam well made so far, but they are pretty narrow to be honest, narrow as in the actual width for you foot.

I have not put enough miles on them to give any feedback regarding how well they would last, though do feel like a decent product, and i think a little lighter than the MG1.

Probably no good at all if you have big wide feet though.

No good for monster gorilla paws.

Yeah not my cuppa tea really, don't think I want to buy anything from the Bi King either

Superstars looking good, could get some green ones

Service the MG1! The DU bush and cartridge bearing can be matched.
