Hello guys, I know flat pedals have been already discussed, but I haven't found any pedals that I've been happy with. I've already tried the DMR Vault, Raceface Atlas (older model) and the Nukeproof Horizon Pro DH. I know the grip on all those pricier pedals isn't bad but I've missed some grip in the Vaults though the platform and shape felt good. The Horizons offered good grip but I didn't like the Platform and the feel while riding. A pedal which looks promising is the Yoshimura chilao which sadly isn't really available in Europe (Germany).

I would be happy if you guys could post some thoughts, experiences and recommendations about DH flat pedals.

one up flats are my favorite. Nice big platform, very very thin profile, and foot seems balanced anywhere I place it. Have them on all my bikes.

So good for DH use too?
How do they compare to tmacs or the horizons for example?

Thought about them too. How do they compare to other pedals you have tried in form of grip and the riding feel?

My closer considerations which are available here in germany are the new atlas, that daggas and the one ups.

I would love a pair. They just seem like they would tear up shoes as soon as I ride them

Which shoes are you riding?
My 5'10 Freeriders lasted like half a year but the impacts are totally different. The are more durable and I would recommend them if you have trouble with your shoes

Yeah the pins got completely through the sole on my last freeriders. Vans are fine they have good grip when they are new but I was sliding on my pedals after some months...

One-up flats. Love em, run them on mulitple bikes in our household. Hard to reset your feet once they land and riding due to the grip! Db
