Adrian Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 had some v8's, pure shit! smooth though, but only if you can be bothered to move the silver cap that covers the bearings back in place every 2 mins, after about two weeks i only had about 5 pins left in each peddle as the all either unscrewed out, got torn out, or the threads went in the removeable ones.... but yet after about a week of use you couldnt remove the changeable ones because once you hit a wall with them the pins get hit and scraped and you cant a an alen key the hole, or the hole fill with dirtso yuo cant get an alen key in the slot to remove them, i think theyre wank, not sure about v12's though...

Ben Beckett Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 i use to have the 'kona jackshit' pedals, they were ace, i now have the v8's and i much prefer the kona 1's, they are wider so there is more pedal for your foot, they don't feel really gay(clicking and creakind) and i could replace the pins when they fall out.

Muel Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 V8s are definately the best value for money, depends whether you ride UCI or BIU style though, I definately ride BIU and they are getting damaged but have been on for 3months and aren't that knackered yet.Heres a better idea, buy V8s, rebuild them when they need it, keep the bearings nipped up and buy a new set of pins every 6 months! your still going to have to buy them for any other pedals anyway, no matter how expensive they are!

N.Wood Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 The standard V8's Vs standard V12's... The only difference is V12's have sealed bearings and 'V12' on the body as opposed to open bearings and 'V8'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
