Bought these pedals to replace the stock pedals on my bike, as the stock would not accept toeclips.
Obviously not a difficult product to fit, there is a "Right" and a "Left" pedal to watch out for, each is clearly marked on the end of the pedal.
They spin nicely on the spindle, feel firm and solid for standing up on, and give great grip.
The pedals have ready made holes for fitting toeclips, and reflectors.
Recommended.

Very good quality pedals: I'm giving these five stars instead of four, considering their value and intended market. The manufacturer says the spindle assembly is chromoly. These are lighter than my Giant Cypress ST resin pedals. Of course, lighter pedals exist elsewhere for considerably more expense. The only con (also an advantage) is the raised spike-tab in the middle of each broad edge--this might pose a hazard in an accident even beyond that of using of metal for the cage. Nevertheless, this spike-tab does grip shoes far better than smaller spikes on many flatter colleague pedal designs--performance improves. I marvel at the quality, given the cost....

I may try the "Campy" knockoffs offered here to see if they are significantly lighter and better--these latter do cost considerably more, but not as much as semi-pro type pedals. Is the higher price of the knockoffs justified?

Very happy with these pedals. They are fairly light weight, yet rugged. I have nothing but good things to say about them. Put them on my road bike with some clip ons and I am delighted.

These pedals arrived very quickly, even though I chose the cheapest shipping option, I got them within 3 days of pressing "order now".

Mine came with reflectors that look easy to pull off, so I pulled them off. I plan to put them back on a bit more securely later.

They are very lightweight and are solidly made. The bearings need to be broken in, but once they are, the pedal spins smoothly.
The thing I like the most about these pedals is the grip. It was wet outside today, but my feet felt like they were glued to the pedal (in contrast to my old pedals which felt like ice when wet).

All in all, for $10.25 you can't find a better pedal. I've seen worse pedals that cost (and weigh) 2X as much.

On the bike they look fresh and shiny, but I doubt they will stay that way for long. I have not dropped my bike or crashed since putting these pedals on, but the pedal looks very sturdy, especially compared to the nylon caged ones that they are replacing.

I'm very satisfied with these pedals.

Don't hesitate, if you are in need of platform pedals for your hybrid/road/MTB/whateveryouareriding, get these pedals now!

note: 9/16 is the standard size for most adult bikes that were built after the mid 1980's. If you don't know the size your bike takes, check the size of the spindle at the diameter of the spindle threads, not the diameter of the hole in the crank arm.

When I first got the pedals I thought they were heavy until I took the stock pedals off of my bike which were more then twice as heavy. The reason I like theses pedals is 1.because they are lighter then some of the 50 to 200 dollar pedals at 288g, 2. "THEY ARE VERY DURABLE, Don't listen to the negative reviews that say they are not, 3. they are such a good value for the low price! The only thing that I could possibly see as a negative is that if you are walking with the bike and the pedal hits the back of your leg you may get cut. The reason you may get cut is because of the ridges that make your shoes stay on the pedals are some what sharp around the edges WHICH also grip very well. I personally think that in the photo these pedals look some what cheap but once you see and touch them you can tell they will hold up for a very long time and a lot of abuse.

Recently purchased these pedals for a used bike I bought.

They work well, the only issue I had was the screws holding the thing together working loose. Fortunately applying some loctite to the screws fixed that up, but I would advise anyone purchasing these pedals to do the same before riding around (losing the screws would be kind of a pain.)

I replaced the pedal on my bike several months ago, and it is holding up very well. I've had no problems.

Much better pedals than my stock pedals. It does come with reflectors on them but they come off pretty easy so you would have to glue them on if you want to keep them on.

This pedal works great with my mountain bike. I ride hard and it serves it purpose. I would recommend purchasing this pedal if you want platform pedals.

These are a fine replacement for my OEM 1978 fUJI s-10s PEDALS. They are light but sturdy. As delivered they were set a little tight but loosened up nicely after a few hours. They would be improved if they had reflectors on them for safety, but some reflective tape will do. Recommended for a reasonably priced set of good looking pedals
