Paul,
I've had luck with Tioga Suefoot 8 platforms on my commuter. I paid about $60 USD for from e-bike stop:

They come with two sets of pins-flt and and sharp-I ended going with the flat pins. They really are grippy I also considered the MKS Grip Kings:

The only reason I went with the Tiogas is because the Grip Kings didn't come in black.
