Could not resist these oil slick one up pedals
coolI was looking for some larger pedals for my size 11 and found the new Atlas pedals from Race Face. Installed them on my Scott eRide Strike and been very happy with them. They are about 118 x 120 x 14, so a comfortable platform size. Also light at ~370g. They came with 20 sharp pins each. Gotta love canadian design!

It’s the little things that count! I’m all about those little details including a proper crimp.View attachment 113141
Some colour coordinated cable ends (even I feel I've gone too far when I'm worrying about such things that you can't even see from a couple of meters away, but hey ho) and some cheap cable pliers to go with them. Because I want a professional looking crimp rather than the mashed by pliers look.
If only I put the same level of effort into working out how to ride the thing well.
New pedals today. Always had Shimano SPDs for as long as I can remember, but thought I’d try some Hope Trails.
Test ride later, but the click in and out already feels really nice and a bit easier.

I had some of those on my old bike.Enormous flat pedals, cheapies from Amazon. These things are like pedaling on platforms. I love ‘em.
I had some of those on my old bike.
but are they really high quality fakes or real
That was the question a bunch of reviews were pondering at the time when I ordered some
They seemed legit though with the packaging etc I got and the bearings seem to last just fine as did the pedals
Great saddle choice I also use the Ergon SM Pro, "Risky Red" trim. Took the risk and found it rather comfortable even on longer rides.I also have a red trimmed Ergon seat on the way to balance it off.
Thanks Rider. Ya I actually have been using Ergon's SM E-Mountain Core Prime version over last season and it's been great. No numbness even on 2 hour rides for me. I'm hoping this SM Pro is just as comfortable because think it's a tad narrower and $50 cheaper than the one I use now. . . . Weird the way Ergon has so many saddle models yet only a few models available in trim other than black. The SM Pro comes in black, red or blue.Great saddle choice I also use the Ergon SM Pro, "Risky Red" trim. Took the risk and found it rather comfortable even on longer rides.
That's why I bought it from Amazon as they have a liberal return policy. I'll try it for a few rides and see if the comfort level is close to the Core Prime and it's something I can live with. I don't run up and down rock fields and roots on the mountains as I'm 74. I'm more single track and XCountry rider. If the Pro works for me, I'll keep my Core Prime as a back up spare as after a spill or mishap I've seen many saddles take a hit and rip on the outside corners.If I recall the SM E-Mountain Core Prime has thicker padding than fhe SM Pro which in turn has better padding than the SM Enduro Comp. Definitely difficult to make an informed decision with Ergon saddles in my opinion.
