they are ace better than 5050 hahaha lol they have good grip and run smoothly the only thing i would say about mine is that the paint comes of relativly quickly i got the white ones and are now 1/4 silver oh well great grip get them.
errrm if there better than 5050 how come 5050's are more expensive and fair enough mine mess up, but i've never seen anyone else who thats happened to, and i've rode my cousins 5050's and your v8's allan and the 5050's grip so much better..read mbuk they rave about the 5050's not the v8's

quoting doddy - "I've been running crank brothers 50/50 pedals for an age. They dont mind being clobbered on rocks, and once the pins have been swapped for grub screws are as grippy as anything out there."

they are not better i will tell you that now they might be equaly with extra pins or new pins if they stay in for long enough and for the extra money i would expect more and with the experence you have had with them i has put me off
