ROCKBROS K203 Pedal

Beautiful design, solid grip for normal rides... Much better than the standard pedal, everything is great and it's light..

Light but rugged. Installation a breeze. Metal studs and large size give confidence & good traction when peddling hard off road & forgiving over bumpy terrain. HIGHLY RECOMMEND these as replacement for cheap plastic original pedals...changed my riding and also makes my bike look great...👍😎

Well, these are experience changing pedals, especially if you use them after cheap stock plastic ones. I won't compare them to the "pro" pedals, but if you have a cheap bike, installing those pedals would definitely improve your experience.

Sealed bearings have noticeable resistance not allowing the pedal to spin freely, though they will last longer

Good grip on regular ‘skating shoes’, solid construction.

Pros: material and Grip. Solid feel.

Very good pedal and the quality is top, but I ordered blue and I received a grey one

The pedals wont spin at hand. You try to spin it and it stops instantly. You can feel a lot of energy will be lost while riding. I paid nearly 40$ for that...

Good pedals at reasonable price

Me encantaron, le quedaron perfectamente a mi bicicleta!

All good as expected

So as we all know, stock pedals are just there so you can ride your bike home. 😉 I was considering purchasing red Deity pedals since I have orange ones on my Mukluk, but I had some concerns which I will address below. TL;DR: Light weight & solid; Gorgeous-looking color and design; Pins give fantastic grip w/MTB shoes and don't scrape up the legs; To start, I wasn't necessarily looking for aluminum pedals, but I wanted something that looked good with my red accents. I happened upon these because I REALLY wanted something that wasn't "boxy-looking" -- concern 1. Concern 2, I wanted good pins to grip my shoes, but I didn't want to gouge my calves every time the pedals brush up against them. The pins on these are absolutely perfect! They are slightly rounded on the edges, and my feet are firmly in place and never slide around, even when I get wet or muddy. As a note, I have 5 Ten Freerider MTB shoes. As for the looks, they are absolutely gorgeous!! The red pedals with the chrome pins looks so sharp - not that people see that when you're riding, but hey, it's the little things right? Also, the fact that they are a bit tapered at the ends is exactly what I was looking for (concern 3). And the aluminum aspect of it I think is awesome. They're lighter than my expensive-ish nylon pedals on my Mukluk. Now there is one thing I do want to mention, and I do not know if this is a good or bad thing: I am not a gearhead or anything, but with these pedals I do notice that they don't spin very freely. By that, I mean for example, when you try to make 'em spin by slapping one side or by using your garden hose when you're washing it, they don't spin much. I do know enough about bearings to know if they are loose or too tight, and they feel just fine. I definitely don't notice it at all when I'm riding, however I did want to mention that. I truly love these pedals a ton, and I plan on getting another pair for my next full-suspension MTB!! 😎

Ordered this to blend into my wife's black-red themed folding bike. I overlooked that there is no reflector but looking at the color it should be shinny enough. Aside from that, it looks great and solid, haven't tried it out for a spin though. I'll update this review if I see similar things described in other reviews. It'll just be used for light rides, around 2-3 times per month 70-100km per ride on mostly cemented roads with little uphill routes, should not be stressed too much.
