My default flattie of choice has always been V8/V12's – like the shape & relatively compact size, but noticed that the Wellgo's are a fair bit lighter. Just wondered how the shape of the Wellgo Mags compare to the V8's – Can anyone advise please?

I've not used V8/V12s but I do have the MG1s. I've not heard anyone complain about the shape of them, although they are not one of the larger pedals available.

bigger platform that v12s. piddly little things they are.

Wellgo B25 are a good pedal. Lighter in weight than the V12 and just a little bit bigger which makes them a lot more useable and comfy. I went from V12 to the B25. They are stronger too as the alloy they are made from is not half as soft and mushy as the V12. They also dont look as tatty after a bit of use. Great price too
