| Pros | Super slim profile, solid grip no matter where your foot is positioned, lightweight | Super versatile do-it-all pedal, cool industrial styling, bottom loading pins, strong stubby axle, no fancy tools required for service, affordable | Slim profile, slick styling, grub screw pins, strong stubby axle, lightweight, lots of available colors | Tough and durable, won’t break the bank, good mid-range size | High-end looks, large platform, lightweight, slim profile |
| Cons | Moderate size platform, pin heads are somewhat exposed, a bit pricey | Small-ish platform, some may want more grip, slight hump underfoot at axle | Fairly expensive, axle can be felt underfoot, concavity achieved with pins not platform | Smaller platform and only 8 traction pins, no traction pins along the spindle | Lower grip, wide traction pins, too many traction pins for their size, top loading pins |
| Bottom Line | Designed to be light, low profile, and good looking | No matter where you ride or what you ride, these pedals have you covered | The best of today's pedal technology in a slim, sleek package | Less-expensive flat pedal option for those who like to put their equipment to the test | Without tons of grip, these cool-looking pedals are a solid freeride option |
