hey at least you figured it out. I think there's a time when everyone changes/upgrades pedals, but the stock ones are fine for hitting some trails.
The stock pedals are definitely adequate on all of my riding so far. I would like a larger wider pedal in the future, but the stock ones will do for now.

I use an old Garmin Edge 500 bike computer. I bought it when I was just getting started into cycling and was deep into the "buy cycling gear" phase. I even bought a heart rate monitor back then. In hindsight I would have bought a cheaper bike computer. That said, I do like the Edge 500 as it allows me to pair up other ANT sensors to it and it can also upload my ride to Strava. So I do not need to use the Strava app on my phone on my rides. I still use the phone for location sharing, so my wife knows where I am.
