My previous bike pedals made of plastic have erupted within 2 years 2 times in the middle because I lay back 13 km daily by bike. This time I finally wanted what have stable metal. At Amazon, I became aware of these robust pedals. After they were delivered quickly I turn them equal assembled and since then I am completely satisfied. The pedals offer a large platform that significantly eases the ride. Especially at the edge bends you not want to leave the side. The rubber pad provides total traction, so that no longer slip is possible. For added security, the integrated cat eyes that no longer slip or break like the old worry. It's the best pedals I've ever had!
