I'm an aggressive rider so I need the spikes on my pedals to keep my feet from slipping off while pedaling. My pedals are super spikey, they will do damage if they hit your leg. I don't think the padding is necessary, but pedals without spikes would be a good option for casual cyclists.
These pedals are also good for those who have to store there bike inside a house or apartment. No more scraping door ways or walls with the hard edges of pedals.
At this point I literally have people asking me on the regular "what happened to your legs". which is really weird because what if I had a disease or was a burn victim... people are just asses.
I bring my hardtail MTB to ride in Manhattan and a few times the train station was really crowded. My legs got absolutely destroyed by my pins trying to maneuver around everyone... these woulda been nice. I think in many cases pins are overkill
Hi Lance .. very good video this morning and I like the product I learned a lot from it today I was wondering if there was a product out there that help for not getting "Freddy Kruger" cuts .. thanks
I have never encountered any of the issues you mention. Even the idea of putting my foot down in front of the pedal to then be scratched by it's unforgiving nature is something I can't fathom and have never, ever witnessed. I'll file this one under a solution looking for a problem, which does not exist, no matter how many times you say 'Freddy Kruger scratches'. As for your dramatic reconstruction of walking the bike, have you considered holding the bike by the saddle? Result: you stand further back and are not encumbered by the bikes protuberances. I suspect this pedal is designed more as compensation for some riders intellectual shortcomings. I'll say no more....
@@theridewithlance I'm sorry but actually I can speak for others here. My experiences are not based on my living a monastical life far from everyone else. I live in a multi million occupancy city.I have lived in several such cities across Europe. My commutes bring me into contact with hundreds of cyclists each day. Apart from my own observances - it's Summer, exposed legs for all to see soaking up the vitamin D and wholly free from 'pedal attack'. This is in conjunction with the very chatty nature of those who ride a similar bike to myself [strange isn't it, roadies talk to other roadies and ignore everyone else, mud people speak to other mud people, in their language and no-one else]. I don't recall anyone ever mentioning such and that's just the sort of subject to get people sharing 'experiences'....
@@tedburg6042 Well I haven't met everyone so it would be churlish of me to presume. I simply accept that there are fundamental differences between an accident and acts of stupidity. Failing to acknowledge this I would be performing a disservice to anyone cognisant of their actions and the impending consequences. I don't pass judgement, I speak as I find. Here's the thing, I often see people walking their bikes - unequipped to fix a puncture, they're trundling off to the nearest bike shop. I just can't reconcile, relate to, or recall anyone referring to the issues you've pointed out. My shared experience, as I think about it, extends to stories passed on from non-cyclists, too. As a lycra clad type I am often called on for advice by non-cycling colleagues who are thinking of riding again. When they mention why they stopped it's usually that life moves on, or they're uncomfortable with traffic levels. Never a Freddy Kruger problem.
This is a totally useless product. It is for delicate beings braving the dangers of riding a bicycles for the first time. The next "Must Have" products are the suspension seat posts, and the cushy big but seats. I am sorry, but people are wasting their mental faculties and money searching for useless products today. I have ridden for many decades, and never have problems walking with my bike.
Totally useless? Don't be hyperbolic. Just because it's not useful to you doesn't mean it's not useful to somebody. I think we should welcome anything that makes cycling more accessible, even if it's only for a small niche of riders.
@@vidiia Exactly, there are myriads of people with disabilities and mobility issues who still want to ride, usually electric assisted bikes. These are also heavier and any hit by pedals is amplified by their bigger momentum. Personally i don't need such product but if elderly or disabled people can have a use of it, then even better. Some physical activity is better than none and i will always encourage bigger accesibility.

Perfect for e.bikes
Yes. I have them on my wifes ebike and she loves them.
Good information would definitely be a good idea for my cruisers
Definitely!
I’m proud of my scars and riding the narley stuff when you need spikes to hold your feet in place.
Right on. Those scars have stories behind them.
At this point I literally have people asking me on the regular "what happened to your legs". which is really weird because what if I had a disease or was a burn victim... people are just asses.
Yes I need that, I have a bruise right now from pedal.
Sorry to hear that.
That is a great idea for commuter pedals, always wondered why use spikes for more casual bikes when skate grip tape exist and is just as grip
Yes, commuters and those who just like casual cruising.
Thanks for the review. I’m going to try some. Tired of having my legs scraped by pedals.
Your most welcome.

I rounded my pins they still push into your shoes but are kinder to skin

Thank you.
Does it fold up??? I have to carry my bike up and down stairs...wet sand on that type of surface doesn't work well...
No they dont.

You speak of your own experience, but you can't speak for the experience of others. I'll say no more...

It also reinforces your belief that your smarter than everyone else.

You never hit a pedal with your shin? Must be lucky.
@@heksogen4788 Seriously, are you going to spend $50 on this?

Good for you. But, you do not speak for all people.
