You all have been great so far and this forum has been a good source of ideas.

My next is Pedals. One of mine broke a while ago, had to pick up a set that were plastic/nylon temporarily as I didn't like what was available locally. I don't think these will last long.

In cruiser fashion no clip-ins, platform is best, I usually ride anywhere from 20-100 miles and often in sandals so comfort is important. Haven't yet but bare footed possibly some day/ride.

I'm just over 200 lbs and like to climb hills at times that are 1-2 miles long and 6-8% grades, bottom line: a lot of weight standing on those poor pedals so they need to be durable hence why I don't think my new plastic ones will last long and time to look into what's out there. Not liking just ordering on-line without some insight from others.

Any thoughts or experiences?

Thanks in advance.
