So I'll get the pics up tomorrow, but here's the deal... My right pedal just went BOOM. The pedal part just slipped off of the spindle as I was going around a corner, sticking to my cleat.

It looks like a lot of small parts disintegrated at the end of the pedal where you inject the grease. I have less than 2000 miles on these pedals, and I'm not too happy right now. They are the cheaper chromo pedals, but still, I think I paid 75-100 bucks for them. I have a pair of mallets that I'm going to throw on tomorrow morning before work, then look for something else.

Since Friday, I'd noticed a little clicking from the right pedal. Today when I got to work, it had been pretty bad on the way in. I checked, and the pedal was moving about 1/16-1/8" on the spindle. I thought it would get me home. Stopped at the Local to see what my sister's plans for Thanksgiving were, and saw people outside checking out my bike while I was smoking.

Random Guy : "See - those are eggbeaters..."

Me : "Yeah, but I think the right one is broken... It's making clicking noises and moving a little. It should hold awhile. They're good pedals."

I so should not have said that. I rode home on a spindle. I'm not to happy about this.

Anyone else have their eggbeaters just fall apart?
