Dammit people, just get there and peddle, put down the twinkies! This is a bike, that is what the peddles are for.

OneUp Announces New Small Composite Pedal
I run Wellgo C006 pedals - they are tiny, but very grippy, and very light, 198 grams for the pair. Never had a problem with my feet coming off. Everybody I ride with freaks out at the size, but hey, they work for me. Pretty damn durable too, I hit a lot of roots in corners when I go in too hard, and they are still good. Got almost 6000 miles on one set. Very inexpensive on ebay, about 25-30 dollars a set. I don't think Wellgo has distribution over here and ebay is just about the only place to find them.

Shimano Patent Shows Direct Mount Electronic Derailleur
I thought the hanger was supposed to be a "safety valve" to make sure the frame and deraileur were not destroyed in a crash; a sacrificial part, low dollars. You take that away and it costs you a frame or deraileur? No thank you.

First Look: Giant's Aluminum Stance E+ Uses Flex-Stays
um, aluminum does not respond well to flexing. It work hardens and cracks. Good luck on this one.

What Type of eMTB Should You Buy in 2023?
Don't.
Get out and pedal, get some exercise, put down the twinkie.

Opinion: Why Weight Doesn't Matter
@Mntneer: everything is relative - 950 grams for the ardent vs 650 grams for the rocket ron and a lot more rolling resistance for the ardent. But the ardent is a lightweight when compared to a downhill tire I reckon.

Opinion: Why Weight Doesn't Matter
Maybe weight does not matter if you are a downhiller, but us folk down here in flat land like light weight and good rolling tires. Tried some Ardents (heavy, slow rolling) as a winter tire and it made me much slower. Was not nearly as much fun riding. Sticking with Rocket Ron
