Hey, i've been looking for some new pedals to replace the crappy stock ones on my KHS Alite 500. The best deal i've come across were Wellgo MG-1 (white) platforms; they have some on ebay for like $30 w/ S+H.
Should i get them or what else would you recommend? I'll either buy from JensonUSA or ebay (if the seller has a good rep).

thx :D:):D:)

Are there any other brands u would reccommend?
Cause, Crank Brothers:too pricy$$$:(, Shimano:once again too pricy$,
Azonic:don't like their platforms:eek:

On JensonUSA they have some "Drive Platform Pedals" for $21, they look ok but right now the Wellgo MG-1's is where it's at.

If you can suggest any other companies with plat's, that would be great!

p.s., I would prefer light, magnesium plat's please.

thx, :D:):D:)

I'm enjoying my primo tenderizers and some other brand that looks similar and says BBB on the pedal.

I just ordered DMR V8 Pedals for myself, they should be decent for $30.

I haven't priced pedals in a while, but I highly doubt you'll find those for cheaper than the brands you listed. I like my 5050s.

DMR V12's come in magnesium, but theyre $100 at least. DMR also has V8's($28.90), they grip great (ive had them) Crankbrothers 5050's are sweet, right now on Jenson for $47 (x) and $109 (xx) Azonic's (fusion) dont look as cool but they have them in magnesium for $35.95, cant beat that. Sun/Ringle have Zu-Zu's, $34.99, i like them. Truvativ Holzfeller are sweet, $72, and theyre Hussefelt is $48. Sunline V3's look good, $80.

hope this helps, i need new pedals so while helping u im helping myself too :) anyway, here's some links, have fun! :D
