Right new pedals....
DoubledUp
Posts: 206
The bearings in my GT pedals seem a bit knackered even after greasing and trying my best to get them smooth, so I've decided to get a new set, im stuck between:
Wellgo CNC Platform B54 Sealed Bearing

Gusset Slim Jim
http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=17286
both in black for under œ30, im thinking of the wellgo ones because they're in stock an I quite like the look of them, looking like eastons, but which is best?

Sorry but, their pants, I don't think I'll ever have anything with loose ball bearings agen, cup and cone does my head in, sealed cartridge is the way forward.
I shall go for the wellgo's then!

The Wellgo's any day mate-much more grippy and look better0

Buy the wellgo mg1 pedals should be able to find them on ebay for œ30, as good as DMR V12 mags with replacable pins and ridiculously light.

Go for the wellgos. They are mint!0

I have DMR V8s and never looked back! My Mate has had his for years n there still good!
Word of advice though, go for silver. The colour wears off and makes em look nakard, but to be honest it doesn't really matter lol
