SNAFU Concave's. Can be found for ~30 bucks and mine are on their 3rd year with original pins :)

www.danscomp.com is where I got mine all those years ago.

Vote #2 for SNAFU. I was concerned about buying such an inexpensive pedal with so few pins, but I I think they are great, and I won't hesitate to buy a new pair when these wear out.

Snafu pedals for shoes with a deep waffle sole. For shoes with a smoother sole Primo pedals seem to work better. Primo also has a more concave design than Snafu.

great deal, same desiegn as the 24 le toaster pedals, for 110 dollars less… they were on for 50 but even 70 is a grab

i have them and i love them, sweet grip, huge platform, silent and perfect bearings, only think id reccomend if you got them is to locktite the pins.

yea, the style shoe you'll be using is a big influence.

That said, I ride DC Titan's with the SNAFU's and they are money. Plus, SNAFU is a cool acronym. My next set will be the magnesium ones (or the lexan Azonic's)

We're all talking about the OLD SNAFU's. The SNAFU O/S (oversized). The new ones are the SNAFU concave, and are crappier, with fewer pins, and more unreplacable ones.

Old ones good, new ones bad.

Never tried the old ones, I have the new ones and I like that my feet stay put when I want them too, AND it's also easy to re-position when needed. I think they are great, however they might not last as long because there are only 4 replaceable pins per surface.

I love atomlab pedals like the ballistic and the aircorp. The only problem with them is there expensive. There so grippy and good though.

Can't go wrong with the higher end wellego pedals. They look exactly the same as pedals costing twice as much. I wouldn't doubt that wellego makes the high end pedals for half of the companies out there.

I got a pair of Elemental pedals that are the same as 24bikes butterfly pedal. I later found out that wellego has the same pedal too.
