------- A couple of weeks before this thread took up, we bought our first pair of BMX pedals, then our second. A friend suggested BMX pedals to improve foot control on my ATB, so I replaced older Deore rat-trap mountain pedals with the Wellgo B-76. I have delighted at how well my feet now stay where I put them. My wife rode my bike and wanted similar pedals for her townie, so I bought Wellgo MG-1's for her -- bright yellow, of course, to match cable housings, grips, bell, and decals. The cast magnesium MG-1 is noticeably lighter in the hand than the machined aluminum B-76, but I notice no weight difference while riding. Both models are quite wide, but they live on high-BB bikes ridden by the risk-averse, so pedal strike is not a practical worry. It's true they're not easily modified, save the addition or removal of pins -- again, not a real drawback for me. We both consider these pedals significant improvements for relatively little money. -- Jon "Papa" Grant, in chilly, damp Austin, Texas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
