    If it’s any consolation I might have identified a replacement. I’m off to Taiwan tomorrow to sort it 🙂

    I think I may have resolved the issue.. Found marginally bigger than standard bolts and they lock up fine no worries, think the standard are M2.5 8mm and I have just chucked in some flat head stainless M3 and cut them down to size. Not a fan of having to send stuff back especially when there is no chance of it being replaced. I didn’t have to re tap and di the holes or anything they just went straight in.

    Dibs on some of those then, especialy if they’re near burgtech sized platofrms, it’s the size (and resultant epic levels of grip) that I like about them.

    I was thinking about this too.. they are pretty severe aren’t they! might be worth re threading all the holes and going with slightly wider and shorter pin…

    might see if something like this will fit

    I love fiddling with stuff so I don’t mind having to do this, and they were only £40 even if I had to flip the faulty pedal over to the good side all the time it wouldn’t be such a hassle.

    I’ve lost 2 pins in 2 rides, think they all need loctite. Anyone worked out the pin size ?

    Thread resurrection time…

    The bearings on my thinnys have started making a right old racket. Does anyone know what size they use? (I emailed on-one but they just said take ’em to a bearing supplier to find out)

    Ta very much.

    good luck with that… the bearing is some patented thing. it actually runs on 2 DUs so hopefully theyre sourceable

    40 quid. Only had them since feb/march so they’ve not even gone through a full winter. Should probably try to return them.

    As much as I like On One, that’s bloody awful.

    ” …a standard cartridge bearing, any local bearing specialist should be able to match a set up for you.” was the exact reply.

    As Northwind, I do like on-one. It’s the first problem I’ve had with anything I’ve bought from them. And they’re pretty decent pedals bar the borked bearings. Will email them again and see what they say.

    Have just changed the bearings on my SSC mag lites (after 2 years use), spares readily available and a 10 min job – was hoping the thinnys would be as simple.
