Sam's talking about concavity. No way do you have to pay >$100 for concave pedals though...I'm looking at my bike with Flatboys now and those pedals are concave, and so far I haven't brought myself to spend over $100 on a pedal. Heck, I'm pretty sure the cheap-o Tenderizer is concave.
Stupid question for ya...what shoes are you wearing? This makes a big difference...perhaps just as much as the pedal itself. Impacts + Tenderizers will grip better than running shoes + Straitlines.
I'd recommend a pair of shinguards too.
