Pedal design devolving?

[ediotism]

sandwich style body, tapered axle at the weakest point with the plastic body acting as the bushing... imitation is the highest form of flattery but i'd still be a little nonplus to see things like this.

come to think about it, i think they're currently sponsoring a couple of top flatlanders, Vicki Gomez and Jesse Puente. you'd be shitting me to tell me they came up with that design from scratch...

The serious pedal grinders I know use those Ody JCPC pedals with pins removed on one side to get that metal grip but smooth grind.

Nah, man, it's magnesium Trailmixes. Gotta have those sparks!

I saw that pedal on Vicki's bike. Its so nice! It is however also super expensive and have little practical use outside of flatland, so yeah, very small market.
