Just an fyi, your forks are bent.

That or I’m not seeing straight, but it looks like they have a slight bend backwards.

@jake I have been running a pair these pedals since Julyish and they look nearly new. Since the pins can’t just push through, like an ordinary pedal the pins haven’t “disappeared”. Losing pins in pedals used to be a big problem for me and now it is gone.
Mike’s calendar made me laugh.

An airplane stripper broke my heart once.

hahaha…I kinda agree with Max…but you forgot to mention the pollutants you have to deal with. That’s what bugs me about it. I do it anyway, and use the proper protective gear, but not everyone wants to or can or knows how to.

Be careful kids…you can get seriously hurt with airplane stripper.

I have had them the longest periods of time. I don’t really pedal grind that much and I have never worn them out. I have had 3 sets over the last 26+ months and only changed pedals to use the newest prototype version, not because any failed. I did replace the original set of pins once. The last set (probably the most torture tested) before my current ones are still in use on someone elses bike.

What’s with people wanting every piece to come in every color possible? It takes about 20$ of paint and some patience to prep, prime, paint and clear coat just about any part on a bike. If you’re lazy or if you really want a pro-grade finish, your local powdercoating can get you pretty much any color imaginable.

The only colors that should be offered by parts companies are black, white, and no color at all.
