  1. when you put grind plates on you pedals do you put it on both sides of
    the pedal.

    life is a whole lot more fun when you live it on just one wheel.

  2. Just put it on one side. That way you can still use the pedal like
    normal when riding.

  3. Yeah, you want the top of the pedals to have as much traction as
    possible, because you want your feet to stick to the pedals, thus
    leave it with the pins in and no plate. You want the bottom of the
    pedals to be as slippery as possible, because you want your pedal to
    slide on the ledges as far as possible, so put a grind plate on that
    side.

    Another good thing about this setup is that the extra weight of the
    grind plate on the bottom of the pedal will naturally keep the pedals
    right side up, so that the pins stay up and the plate stays down. Good
    luck with them.
