I sold my pair, but while the Urbans are far better in quality than the GR 9s -- bearings and body are very good quality -- I disliked the larger flip tab -- the size actually made it harder to get into the straps. I now use a pair of GR 9s on the Dahon, and they work (for me) much better. FWIW.
I see that MKS has a GR 10 model, that looks much like the 9. How is their quality compared to the Urbans (almost as good as the Keirin quality track pedals) and to the 9s (entry level)? (Bearings on the 9s: I basically dribble thick oil into the bearings, then let use wear them in to smoothness. The track pedal bearings are the best I've ever seen.)
