Ali C Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 I got some of those years ago (7 years I think), they were rather swell I think.I am rather liking my monty vp pedals at the mo, really tough cage and better bearings than the £12 vp nastys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgun_Donor Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 i just fell in love with gusset slim jimsnot the pink ones, they're gay. Im talking about the lovely black ones. they have cunning removable pins that screw in from underneath, they're concaved so your foot actually sticks to them (unlike your average DX copy) and they're slim vertically which for some reason feels really nice compared to big fat b*****d V8s. anyway, yeah / gusset slim jims are great - but not in pinkOi how rude!!! I have Gusset Slim Jims, perfect pedals! couldnt ask for better. But the pink ones are the best ones! They have special anti gavity properties!!!!

Mark W Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 The VPOne pedals I've got did/do it for me. When I actually got to ride my trials bike (damn Luke/uni), they took everything I could throw at them, including some pretty harsh gaps/ups to slip to pedal on some rough-as-badgers-arses concrete rubble. They just took everything really well, were super grippy, really well made and were just...well...really bloody good pedals, basically. Can even get some crazy-ass support bar to go in the middle of the X's if you're planning on taking your bike off some sweet jumps/downhill tracks so you don't bugger 'em up. But yeah, they are good pedals and seeing as no-one else has them on here I thought I may as well fire up a review... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_Neal Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Personally, I use a set of Club Roost: The Push. Bit more than V12s but the pins have lasted me over a year of abuse - so far I've lost 1 to date. Unlike V12s which seem to fold up and die quite quickly. Bearings are superb. Buy some.Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Dark Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 i bought my dmr v8s for £5 second hand and they're brilliant...ive dropped one pin so far, but apart from that they've been amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Tom* Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 V8's are really good, never had any problems with mine. V12's are crap, because they run on like a bush at the crank end and once that wears out the pedal starts to rattel, mine lasted about a year befor this happened wouldn't bother buying V12's again. I've also got a pair of KHE flatland pedals, really amazing pedals must be about 5 years old, taken loads of abuse, never lost a pin, still smooth as the day i got them and they're slightly concave so feel really nice, mint grip aswell.. Only problem is I have no idea where to get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oli Smith Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Wellgo v8 copies are awesome. Had em for over a year on the trials bike. There bloody ace and half the amount of 8s. Essssyyyyyy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Arnold Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 echo mags are pretty wank, i've lost almost all the pins after about 8 months. to be fair they are very light and the axle and bearings are very good.i'm now on vp's 9 quid badgers with the inner cage removed, they're great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
