This is the OEM starter pedals that come with road bikes to "get you by" until you purchase cycling shoes. However, there is an alloy core model of this available that does work quite well.
This particular plastic/resin core model has the steel cages screwed on, and since the screws go into plastic, and you're stepping on this, you can just imagine how that goes.
The purpose of this particular product is for selling bikes, test drives and other temporary use.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great for starters, June 10, 2007

This review is from: Sunlite Bicycle 9/16 in Low Fat Type Plastic Mountain Pedals with Clips and Straps, 1 pair (Misc.)

I purchased these pedals a year ago for my road bike since they were cheap and I wasn't sure if I would like a clip and strap pedal. For that, they did great as they showed they were a definite upgrade over a regular platform pedal. You do get what you pay for though, while I'll never go with a platform pedal again, the bearings are starting to go on these only after about 500 miles of biking. I do take care of my bike with regular maintenance, this is just a failure of the pedal.

These are great for beginners, but if you like clip and strap pedals already, you'll probably want a set of higher quality.

The pedals felt great and had excellent grip on the road, but the interior structure is made of plastic and broke under heavy (daily) use over a three month period. If you off road, ride trails, or are heavy user of your bicycle a complete metal or alloy pedal would hold up better. A great pedal with strap and clips, but not for extreme biking.
