  1. what pedals have completely removable pins where i can take them all out
    with a screwdriver or allen wrench, instead of with pliers or a
    grinder?

    snow with wet pedals and wet shoes with little to no slippage.

  6. the reasons i want them is because:

    w/ flatland, my feet always get jammed between the wheel/peddle pins,
    these look like it wouldnt happen as much

    i wouldnt loose any pins out of them

    i could easily grind off the pins to grind

    theyre uber cheap!! so i could by them as i wrecked them

  8. Just buy or make a grindplate like these ones available on
    danscomp.com:

    [image: http://www.danscomp.com/products/PEDALS/512057.gif]

    They're pretty easy to make, just make sure you countersink the bolt
    holes to get the bolt heads flush.

    A grindplate is better than just taking out the pins because:

    1. You don't damage your pedals at all.
    2. They slide better.
    3. The side with the grindplate will always rotate down when your foot
    isn't on so you can't mount on the wrong side of the pedal.

  10. the kona jackshit pedals have fully removable pins and shouldnt be more
    than 30 bucks and you remove them witha small allen key or the jim c
    oddesys have fully removeable pins and go for around 35 bucks from udc
    they use a 5mm allen if im not mistaken.

  11. k- heres the dealio

    the pedal in the picture you have shown is what i used to have on my
    bmx bike and what i now have on my unicycle. it is a fine pedal, and
    very grippy until the pins start wearing down (the reason they are no
    longer on my bmx bike). i replaced them with wellgo platform pedals
    with removable pins. they are more grippy then the original pedals ever
    were, they come in cool colors, they are only $15, you can remove pins
    from one side for grinding, and you can replace pins that break or
    wear. you can get pins and pedals from danscomp.com shipping will cost
    half as much as the pedals though, sometimes you can find them in bike
    shops.

  13. WELGOS SUCK
    i hate them with all my heart(overexageration)
    but i dont like them at all. the pinson the left and right edges get
    your foot cought in between the crank/wheel and you fall. plus they
    have crappy bearings.
    they are also crappy for pedal grabbing. they break very easily...

    its just me .. but i hate them

  16. ya- i did break one once. it sucks. but, the other pair i had went
    through quite a bit and never broke. if you are a serious pedal
    grabber, you'll probably wanna get something a lil more beefy, but
    seriously, other than that, they are fine.
