Now for the peddals....any folding pedals that are decent out there?
If you found one please let me know. I can understand why Giant (and other folder manufacturers) use inferia saddles and peddles on their products. They use cheap plastic saddles to save weighs. They can claim their folders are lighter. The same with folding peddles, they can claim that their bikes folded into smaller packages.
I did not find the couple of inches wider of my DeoreXT peddles any drawback. I usually put the folded bike in my subcompack Honda and could not notice any differences between the folding peddle and the DeoreXT. But when biking on the road there are lots of differences.
