I’ve been meaning to try the plastic (i think strictly Nylon? probably wrong) Nukes for a while now after witnessing the pasting a mate handed out to his over a period with no ill effects. Normally I run NanoThru’s / NanoX’s (several pairs of each) or ickle Shimano spa’s on non-flat bikes. Had DMR’s and Saints and don’t feel the need for a second pair of either.
Obvious pluses of the non-metal pedals are the price, but they honestly seem to be the equal of almost anything out there that isn’t titanium axled exotica. So, your stomach for adventure and willingness to open your wallet seem to be the key points if you like thin, wide flats with the usual pins that you can get replacements for anywhere.
I’m actually surprised that the thread hasn’t been sabotaged with people telling everyone that they need Vaults, Burgtecs or F20’s and nothing else will do, yet. Well done, STW! 😀
