Some much needed new pedals for the Roux.

The only spare pedals I had when I bought the Roux were some extremely cheap platforms that I think I got from ebay. As well as being big and heavy, the bearings in these pedals have gone very notchy and graunchy so they have to go to the great recycling bin in the sky.


Both my Dave Yates and the Whyte have Shimano Saint pedals but I thought these were a bit heavy and chunky for a road bike. After a bit of research, I decided on V12 Mag's by DMR Bikes. They're 150g a pair lighter than the Saints and have buttery smooth bearings so I'm very pleased so far.

I'm just really not looking to the first time my foot slips off one and the cranks spin round and smashes it into my shin...
