Where to buy?
I have a new IRO Mark V in transit to me from NY as we speak. I want to buy a set of MKS GR-9 pedals to complete the bike(for now). I was wondering if anyone has any good sources to get them? The best deal I have found so far has been at Harris Cyclery and MomoVelo. From what I have read momovelo is pretty questionable. Anyone have any input? Google wasn't much help.

American Cyclery seems to carry them for a little less than Harris. https://fixedgear.americancyclery.com/

bensbike on eBay usually has them. I don't think they have any up right now. You might try emailing them and asking. Their Buy Now price has been $26 or so.

Yup, and not nearly as comfy or efficient for soft soled street shoes. The first is a personal preference, you may disagree, the latter is a matter of physics and undeniable.

Spread the word!!! DO NOT BUY FROM MOMOVELO!! I ordered a folding bike from them February 2nd, 2004. My confirmation said it would be shipped within 24 hours but it never arrived. I contacted him after a couple weeks and said he would be in in a month so I opted to wait. The production of the bike (Dahon) has continuously been put back to where they are now forecasting January 15th, 2005. I don't blame Momovelo for the production of the bike but they have refused to respond to numerous e-mails about refunding my money or changing the order to something in stock. They don't have a valid phone number and have a history of horrible customer service!!
