Dahon/Tern Pedal Failure
A few weeks ago, the pedal on my Dahon Speed P8 broke in half while I was riding it. Has anyone else had this issue with Dahon folding pedals?

http://www.ternbicycles.com/forum/my...al-has-snapped If you are under warranty, your best bet is to contact your dealer. If not, look for good quality folding pedals (there are several threads here about folding pedals). |
Yes a shame the Dahon forums have gone some very useful info in them :(

The problem is that Dahon has not issued a recall. They're still selling these bikes with these dangerous pedals. I could've been killed.

Pick up some of MKS removable ones see how they go..
I'm seeing stress cracks in the bearing support and hinge part of the Brompton pedal .. Seems, a pedal that folds is difficult to make as durable as one that has a continuous Axle.. add in the demand to keep the cost low as possible , and stuff happens.. |
