I meant to give fooox a thumbs up. My bad. That front flip was crazy!!!

This is why rydindirty doesn't design products. He uses his "I'm always right" skills and not basic principles taught in schools. The seesaw experiment might not work for him because the hot air in his head is offsetting the weight of the seesaw.

Sorry Waki, I meant to give you a + props... Stupid tiny ass buttons

Nice helmet! Looks intense

I had a pair of point one pedals that were preproduction and they had no spinning resitance at all. They were nice because they were point one pedals of course but when it comes down to it, i would want a pedal that I know exactly where it's at on a real downhill. I don't want it doing it's own thing when my foot is sliding around a corner. It's that extra bit of insurance that is nice to have. A free-spinning pedal doesn't always wander when your foot is off but all of us have experienced it before and therefore it does happen in reality and not a happy little physics world where people don't take into account that your flying down a bumpy @ss trail that will move a pedal. The point is that the designer wanted some resistance and he even chose a specific amount with how tight the O-rings hugged the spindle. Brand new ones are extra stiff but they break in. And the reality of resistance in your BB, wheels and chain is that it IS there and will remain that way because everything has resistance. Choose whatever pedal you'd like with as little resistance as you want but I know my choice is still better.

Thanks mom!!

And white. The red was custom. They look boss in red

The pedal is designed to have a bit of resistance so when you throw your foot down for a turn or something you know right where it is when you get your foot back on. There is only real resistance when you turn it with your hand, I'm sure no one can notice it from pedaling cuz add up your chain, wheel and crank bearing resistance and there's 95% of it. You can't go wrong with the Podium Pedals!
