Pro-tip.  On your Appaloosa, remove the aluminum dust caps, put a drop of 
blue loctite (or beeswax) on the threads.  Reinstall, but only snug, don't 
strip the plastic threads out.  

My dustcap was about half-way unscrewed on one pedal after about a 6-mile 
jaunt.

Thanks for confirming, Bill, that's good news for us retentionistas.

Those are pretty nice! Especially for a plastic pedal! I happened upon a pedal 
I really like at REI. Slim nice looking and only $20 a pair! I have plenty of 
other platform pedals that cost twice as much that I did not like half as well!
Bought a pair for the Clementine and liked'em so much I bought another pair for 
the other 'tine even though I already had a set of pedals that would have 
worked fine for that bike.

I think the pedal bodies are not slotted in a way that you could easily run 
retention straps.  I'll double-check when I get home.

Do the horizontal slots in the pedals run all the way through, on both 
sides of the axle? I ask, wondering whether velcro retention straps or 
similar will fit these.

Awesome, thanks for sleuthing Bill! 

They look rad, was just hoping they came in a little closer to the typical 
Wellgo-ish price point. 

Alas, nothing too good for these feet!

I thought they reminded me of the VP-001 pedal that RIv carries, makes 
sense that they'd spec something similar...
