[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

Happened across the Wellgo M-111 last winter while turning an old Trek drop bar to a city flat bar. The M-111 in silver looks proper with the bike, is a two sided flat, and has decent street shoe grip. More of a show pedal than performance riding but is well made, has quality bearings well

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

Hi All, I have wide feet and prefer a thin, flat sole in my shoes. The RMX pedal that Riv sells is good but the best I've found is the Hope F20 Flat Pedal. It's well made (the bearings seem fantastic), thin and light for such a large pedal (100mm wide and 110mm front to rear). It has a very

Hi Ian, my ice-skate feet with tall arches measured out once at 13A, but I'm comfortable in most size 12D shoes. My favorite walking shoes are Merrells, and they're also my favorite platform pedal shoes Regards, Ron . On Monday, September 4, 2017 at 1:05:58 AM UTC-5, Ian A wrote: > > What

What size and width feet do you have Ron? The pedals you reference sound good for my feet. IanA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to

MKS King Grips. I used clip in pedals for years and liked the feeling of being locked and loaded :) I decided to get out of my comfort range for my new bike. I have been using these for a month and love them. My feet don't slip at all so I still feel locked in. But I can ride in any shoes

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

I don't really have that much experience with many models of platform pedals, because I found out early on that MKS RMXes work well for me, and so I accumulated a stash. The RMXes are secure, comfortable, serviceable, and look fine. I do find the MKS Sylvan more attractive (I have 2 pairs) but

Those Speedplay Brass Knuckles look nice but they are rather pricey! $175 for this beautifully polished pedal, too bad it won't stay pretty for long. [image: Speedplay Ships Brass Knuckles, Colorful Flats That Will Take a Beating] On Sunday, September 3, 2017 at 11:31:41 AM UTC-4, A CT

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

I've been through a bunch of platform pedals, and have some I specific complaints, including VP001. What I don't like about them is the pedal is wider than your footprint on the pedal (wider than it needs to be), giving it poor clearance and carving the side of your calf as you're walking

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

I have big, wide feet and suffer from intense hot foot (nerve pain from metatarsals squeezing together, I'm told). I like Chromag Scarabs for their massive platforms and Shimano Saints for the length of the spindle. I have one set of the huge Pedalling Innovations pedals and have become a fan.

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

V-O Sabot. Reasons: 1) They're silver; 2) They're very well made and durable; 3) They're grippy without being so grippy that they chew up the soles of my feet (although they're not as grippy in rain as I'd like them to be); and 4) The platform is among the largest I've seen with a platform

Canfield crampon ultimate. convex pedal platform shape is so much more comfortable for me than the usual bowl shaped or flat shaped platforms. Clayton Scott SF, CA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

I have chosen VP Vice over the Thin Gripsters due to it's longer axle and slightly larger. Plus you can find the Vice for $45. Same rebuild-ability, same ease of spike replacement. I have seen another pedal that looks interesting and is made right here in my home of Grand Junction Colorado.

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

VP Vice. Longer axel than VP's Rivendell offers, and thus seems beefier, in theory. Love the spikes. Now that I ride in sandals (or boots in winter) I keep all spikes in, but I used to take out the spikes on one side and that works great for riding barefoot (an uncommon need, but if you have

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

+1 for the thin gripsters. I really like them. Only one or two pedal strikes in deep turns or on a rutted trail. No problems with very little maintenance (maybe none). Initially I thought the spikes were too "spikey" but got used to it quickly and now really like them. I almost bought some

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

I love these pedals, except for the dust caps that fall off if you don't Loctite them, and then the pedal develops lateral play and you have to keep re-tightening them. I have three or four pairs, and have started to loctite all the dust caps that haven't fallen off and gotten lost yet.

[RBW] Re: Favorite Platform Pedals

I like the vp001 "thin gripsters" No problems after 1000s of miles Look good Don't fall apart like the MKS gripsters did Don't slip when wet Spikes don't bite me as often as the MKS ones They're pedals. They work. On Sunday, September 3, 2017 at 6:31:41 PM UTC+3, A CT Cyclist wrote: > > Just
