Pedal Recommendations

Dear unicyclists,

I’m having trouble finding durable and good pedals.

Which pedals (MTB brands) do you use and recommend?

I had a pair of aluminum pedals from “NOW8”, the M46.2, for about four months. I didn’t even ride every weekend, and they’re already done for. They’re completely bent, and both the shop and the manufacturer claim it’s due to “improper use” because I used them on a unicycle.

I’m not a big fan of the relativly large plastic pedals from Kris Holm and QU-AX, because I like thin ones more.

Thanks in advance!

What discipline do you do with them ?

The race face Chester pedals are the standard for me (usually 50€, sometimes as low as 25€). Allow for amazing grip with five ten shoes and so far neither I or my friends have broken them (I’ve bent some similarly prized metal pedals).

Muni!
Sorry, forgot to mention that.

How do you bend pedals that fast on muni ? Do you do some really intense muni or fall a lot on rocky steep tracks ?

Last year I got these for my 29", because the others were worn out (not bent though). I used to have stock pedals for 9 years without issue.

I have no idea!
I’m not the best rider ofc, but I do not fall that often and I’ll mostly jump off and catch the unicycle. That’s why I’m so stunned that they are bent so much and went back to the shop.

I personnaly use issi trail III pedals that are really nice… But if you don’t use clipless pedals, my advices are probably of no interest to you.

I think DMR Vault is still the go to for long lasting Muni pedals, a bit pricy though.

I have some spank spikes, which I like and they’ve survived my abuse so far. I think price to performance they sit pretty well. The pins are pretty agressive though which I think destroys shoes a bit more quickly.
