The Hope pedal seals didn't really work, they fit but not perfect and couldn't set them nicely with no play and to spin freely so I'll just use without the seal for now. I have spare warranty replacement anyway. I'm going to buy some HT KA01 pedals in a few weeks, I like the big square platform shape and of course no loose bearings to mess with.

 Ordered some Hope pedal seals to sort this pedal out, the single lip ones, not a clue if they will fit or work but worth a try for a quid each.

 Cool I got a warranty replacement set coming in the post, sorted.
