Superstar also do a lighter pedal called the Ultra Mag-Lite. With a Ti axle it weighs 260g for £110. Very, very good value...

i like both those last two as well. I have a tough decision now but thank you for all the ideas. Smile

Once you see the price of both, you'll probably look elsewhere. lol
The superstars are cheap for a sealed pedal?

Heavier than an MG-1 and more expensive than it too!

Look into the MG-1 off of JensonUSA. They are on sale for $60. For the price, you can't beat it and they are one of the lighter pedals on the market that isn't $200+. As long as you don't take too many direct hits to the pedal's cages, they will last. However, magnesium is a soft metal compared to aluminum but the weight savings is substantial. Sort of an ultimatum.

Nc-17 Sudpin 3 S-Pro! Very light and very stiff. I ride them now for one year and I like them!! If I need new pedals, I would prefer them

He said light and grippy. Straightlines weight a ton as do Syncros
Most expensive but super light and grippy are the Twenty6 Prerunners with ti splndles. The cromo spindles are a little heavier but still super light.
Then the Point One Racing Podium pedals super thin, grippy, light and less expensive
Them there are the Deity Decoys. The least expensive, still on the light side and pretty thin. Deity also has some new stuff in the works for spring.
