Totally. And they don’t need super grippy pedals on their city bike.
But regardless of cycling experience/ ability I maintain that if your application requires grippy tires it also requires grippy pedals.
Even if there are exceptions to this, the universal spec of pin-less plastic pedals on budget mountain bikes is still wasteful at best both in terms of pedals being recycled and spec dollars that could have been spent otherwise. I think (wrong bike or wrong pedals) it also is indicative of folks not being sold their best possible riding experience.
