I have MKS GR9 platform pedals on both of my road bikes. Both sets have several thousand miles on them with no problems. Sheldon Brown (RIP) said that these were the last true platform pedals available. I use hard rubber cages/nylon straps with mine. Even though I don't use clipless pedals, I do wear cycling shoes for the stiff soles.
