Dan_Trials Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 I take it you want some cagies then?! My advice is if you use your pedal on obstacles etc don't get the 6061s, they bend. The Monty's are expensive in comparison but use 7071 grade aluminium and wont bend (in most cases). I believe the pedal bodies and bearings of the two are the same. Removing the inner cage (and using washers to take up the space) may work better for you too as it allows for more pressure to be applied to the remaining cage.

NileBrown™ Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 (edited) Or if you want platform pedals I would go for the DMR V8s as they are cheap and last for a good while they're around 20quid or you could get the wellgo v8 copies which are near enough the same but different pins and I think bearings and they go for about 11 quid off chain reaction.

Cage pedals last me an average of about 3 rides lol, especially if you like going to bash or crank, or drop your bike... mostly you have to remember to tighten up the cages like every other ride... which sucks!!!I'd go with Nile on this one! V8's lasted me 6 months although a broke all the pins off them in the 1st ride! The welgo copys are slightly heavier but also a bloody bargin for 11quid with no P&P..... if you do have the 40 odd quid... get Revels or Slimjims..... ive got some pedals... there well good.. no clue what they are though!! hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo-Scott Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 As long as you tighted up the cage pedals every few rides they will last quite along time. Very sore when you get a pedal slip though but once they have worn down abit it doesn't seem to hurt so much, just leaves a bruse instead of lots of blood.

Ste Wilson Posted September 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 thank you for all your suggestions! think i will get a pair of echo vp's covert them into 1 cage and see how that goes and when they wear out will get a pair of v8's:) thanks alot everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo-Scott Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 think i will get a pair of echo vp's covert them into 1 cage If you do that once they have worn out you could use the first bit that you took off and put that on instead and that way you would get two uses out of one pedal.
