Hi all, first off, I have searched the forum and none of the Pedal discussions gave any help.
I'm looking for some nicely priced Flat pedals for DH and FR.

Price: Sub $40 (or in that area) (So no 50/50, V12 etc...)
Looking for Sealed bearings, replaceable pegs. Nice design that will hold up and grip like a mofo. Not too bothered about the colour.

so far I'm checking out the Da Bomb Gravity Bomb pedals

And also have looked at the DMR V8's, but they don't have sealed bearings...

Any suggestions or tips?
Thanks

Hey dude, I was looking into those, but will they hold out for DH riding? They look pretty thin.

V12's are too expensive...

Thanks for the posts all!

Are they the same? Some people are claiming that they break. But if it's the same construction then that would be the same issue for DMR right? But I haven't used them at all so I'm going on what I read in the reviews at the moment... they look good though!
