Hi
So as I was looking for the best deals of the Cannondale cujo 3 ( http://www.pedalon.co.uk/acatalog/canno ... -2017.html ) I came across pedalon. Pedalon do what seems to be the best deal on the market! For every £50 that's spent on a non sale bike they reward you with a podium point. You end up getting around 20% of what the bikes worth to spend on accessories such as helmets, pedals, bars etc. So I found these pedals ( http://www.pedalon.co.uk/acatalog/shima ... al_pp.html ) as the bike doesn't come with pedals I need them. So will these pedals fit the cranks on this bike? (I may be mistaken with terminology) or shall I go for other pedals. I need a helmet as well so I think I like this Scott one ( http://www.pedalon.co.uk/acatalog/scott ... ck_pp.html ) . That equals 13 podium points so I haven't used them all however I was also wondering can I spend the points better or not? I have maximum 14 podium points!
Thanks

    Unless you're only ever going to ride in the dry I'd avoid plus size wheels. They're great if you're in Arizona, not so good in the UK. Too fat to cut through mud, too narrow to float on top like a proper fat bike.

    Oh I'd been recommended them but if for U.K. They aren't so appropriate I'll look at other options! Thanks for the advice.

    Because the plus tires aren't as good in the wet U.K. Conditions will this bike be more appropriate I aim to ride trial rides such as Cannock and swinley

    Some rather low rent parts for the price, you could get a similar specced bike for circa £500.
