Re: Best Pedals for Coker

Ouch! Nathan's pedals are expensive? On a more budget-minded note, I
just ordered a pair of 'Jim Cielencki platform pedals'
(http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=726) which, according
to the page at UDC, weigh only 12.7 oz (360g). But I don't have them
yet. $34 at UDC and they come in non-ugly, non-boring colors. 🙂

360g per pedal. '710g per pair' (http://tinyurl.com/2emarn).

I had a pair of the Azonic Fusion Magnesiums mentioned above. They are
very nice, but do maintain them every year or so. If you ride them hard
in crappy weather for several years with no maintenance, they do die in
the end.

ARE THEY KIDDING? Don't most sites give the weight for the pair? Lame. I
take back my recommendation in terms of lightness... 😠

What's missing in this thread is any discussion about what makes a good
Coker, or road pedal as opposed to other types of riding. For me it's
all about grip. With RTL looming, weight is more of a factor than
usual, but the rest of the time I think of those wheels being so heavy
at the outside (tire, rim, spokes) that pedal weight is not much of a
factor. Also I like something that looks nice, and is hopefully not
black. Silver is okay, but not very interesting...

Go with Wellgo MG-1s they're about $30-$50 and are as light as plastic
pedals with plenty of grip.
