new special edition jimmy c pedals!

here they are! I think they would look great on catboys muni. DROOL :slight_smile:

Nice…are those magnesium?

No…And theyre not sealed either…Its just a new color.

no, the magnesium sealed ones are like $75 and are plain black. I was drooling at them like 5 minutes ago.

im dumb so what does it mean when peddals are sealed, what makes them so amazing

Sealed pedals use a cartridge bearing that has a simple seal to help keep out dirt and contamination.

Unsealed pedals use loose ball bearings. The loose ball bearings are not inside a sealed cartridge and are more vulnerable to contamination.

Here’s what an unsealed pedal looks like

Here’s what a sealed pedal looks like

One practical difference is that you’ll have to overhaul unsealed pedals more often to replace the contaminated grease. Unsealed pedals need to be overhauled too, but generally not as often.

Another practical difference is that unsealed pedals are generally more durable for things like pedal grabs and grinding.

there not realy new i have hadd them for almost a year now

Sweet, now if only the jimmy C’s were grippy enough.

would it be ossible to just put longer pins in them, thus making them grippier?

Yeah, Jims come with 2 sets of pedal pins, I have long pins in both my pairs

I just put some of the yellow ones on my Torker LX. The LBS gave my a deal on them cuz nobody else wanted them haha.
