lets see what everyone is using. whether it be straps/cages, clipless, or whatever else.

just got my fixed gear bike. it has straps. im not too impressed with them. wanting to switch them out with something better. clipless or whatever lol

I would start here as it is quite recent and will give you an idea of what people are using. If you have questions about specific components you should probably try out the search function to see what comes up and then ask specific questions from there if you still need more info...

thanks dude!! awesome link

No problem... glad I could help.

ok. it's looking like a bunch of people like the crank brothers egg beaters. i found them for $50. what special shoes will i need?

Hey solbrothers this isn't H-T
LOL at Official thread...

hahahahahahahahahahaha for sure dude!! if this were HT, it'd be *MEGATHREAD*! haha

so are eggbeaters good on a fixed gear? im new to biking and don't like my straps and cages

loads of homies use them. they work well.


however i've heard of some gnarly tumbles because of slips and clip-outs and whathaveyou. just don't be a dork on them.

yeah i don't plan to skid or any of that hipster stuff LOL

Ahh, I thought I left the Honda-Tech world all together.

lol. HT is so overrated. it's getting really ****ty lately. im glad i was banned.

I just so happen to have a picture of the pedals on one of my bikes, already uploaded to photobucket. I use SPDs cause they're a dime a dozen and I have a dozen bikes.

Egg beaters all the way . By far the best pedals i have ever used
have 4 sets = 4 bikes all with CB Egg beaters .

Nice

mks sylvan
mks clips
allera laminated straps

mks rx1
mks clips
toshi laminated

Gods, I wish toshi doubles weren't 90-***ing-dollars

I have Crank bros Candy Cs. Which are just eggbeaters with a small platform.

Eggbeaters are easy to use. I have eggbeaters & candys on 4 bikes. However, I've broken the spindles on 2 in the last three years. The pedals that broke had been used for a few years, but its still something to think about.

LOOK no further. Hardy har har....
.
Seriously, though. LOOKs. Just keep 'em tight.

bike isn't even built yet :/

So does called your thread "Official" make it so, even when there are like 400 other threads on the same topic?

Tried Crank Bros on MTB and fixed. HATED them. Oh lord. Switched back to SPD. Very happy.

mks stream
mks steel toe clips
french straps (cheap! better than nylon hands down
)

i think i'll go with the eggbeaters based on the reviews ive read and the price. when i find shoes, i'll pull the trigger on the pedals.

now, where to get shoes? LBS? REI?

i shall forever love my mallets... best mix of clipless and platform i've seen.
