I wanted, as the previous speaker, the cheap plastic pedals of my bicycle exchange for these XLC pedals. First of all I was very pleased: They look good, work stable, have a tacky feel and fit right away Now after a few weeks I'm unfortunately a bit disappointed as already solves the rubber at one point. While I drive almost daily by bike, but still should be able to expect it to remain a little longer intact. Perhaps this is just been a production error in my pedals, but again I would not buy me definitely a shame. Because of the low price, there are still about me 2 stars.
