magnesium pedals

ooh la la, those look very nice. I'm just imagining having them instead
of the ones I have - they look very comfortable and, I'd imagine,
light.

The mags sealed are 425 g vs 535 g for the alloy sealed, which are about
$20 less. here's the web page:

I'm wondering if a few ounces in weight savings will make any
noticeable difference...what do ya think?😄😕

pedals are all personal preference but i didn't really like the feel of
the balance pedals, they aren't very grippy.

i imagine those primo mag pedals you have the pic of actaully in the
thread work well. they go with the few pins but well places strategy
that snafu uses and those rock. as far as a few ounces weight
differnce, unless you're crank flipping like mad, i don't think you'll
notce much.

I love my GT pedals on my BMX, too bad they're 1/2" threaded. I'm sure
there is adapters, but I would rather have proper threading. Plus the
pedals that come with the Torker DX are probably better than my GT
pedals.

My GT pedals are exactly like this, except they have different grip on
them.

I've been really happy with the 'Snafu (sealed bearing) pedals'
(http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=524). I won a set at
Moab a couple years ago, donated by Nathan. Not sure why he was parting
with them. I put them on my muni to replace the original Primo
Tenderizers. The Snafus were much grippier, with really zero slipping.
I like them enough that I bought another pair to replace the original
Wellgo pedals on my GB4 36. This has given me very consistent feel
between my muni and Coker, which are the two unis I ride the most. That
said, the Snafus are almost -too- grippy on the Coker, where I have a
bit more trouble getting perfect foot placement during the mounting
process. Sometimes it's a bit of a challenge getting things adjusted
while pedaling, but once I have the feet in the correct position, they
don't budge until the next time I dismount. I like them a lot.

I have those expensive Tiogas. Came on my coker.

Very nice platform for your feet, feel solid, and super grippy.

I didnt realize they were that expensive though. Good thing I got them
for cheap. =p

As General Dibbles said, pedals are pretty much a personal preference
kind of thing, but for Muni I've found the following to be important
for riding in So Cal:

Wide Platform. The super light ones (mostly cut out) don't give enough
support for big drops and hurt my feet (you're basically absorbing
impact on a couple thin bars--not good at 210 lbs.). And they gotta be
grippy or my feet slip off during hard rolling. If the pins are too
high it makes it hard to shift feet (on the pedals) on the move, and
this is a necessary skill, where you gotta shift foot position from
balls of your feet to over your instep during drops. I also like the
pedals too look cool. So all in, these are my favorites:

However, the Speedplay's are stupid expensive and at less than a
quarter of the price (25 bucks) the Azonic Mag pedals are still tops in
my book. Jess Riegel of the SB Muni club was the first one to find
these gems, and he told the rest of us. I believe Jess likes them for
street riding as well.

I've got a set of DK Iron Cross pedals on my 29er, and I love them.
Not only do they look fantastic, but they're really comfortable and
grippy.

They do weigh just about as much as all the rest of the uni though,
although to be honest, for road use I really don't find that a
problem.

I've used Shimano DX pedals for the past 10 years or so (whenever they
began re-issuing them) on both b*ke and muni. Rock solid, light-ish
(480g), and durable.
