Size 12 foot looking for big flat pedals, are these the best or have you a different suggestion?
Thanks

Size 13, wide AF, feet here, and i have not really found a pedal i like more than the DMR vault, though tbf I’ve not tried the one you listed. Kinda Wah Wah II alloys i really loved the feel of under foot (HUGE!), but they are so wide, and also at the corners, that pedal strikes were a real issue.
DMR vaults just keep on trucking, use them on 2 main bikes. Just do the easy option of shoving grease into the area under the axle cap, then when you tighten that up it forces the old mucky grease out at the bushing end. Replaced the bushings twice, and the bearings once, in 9000kms on one set, the others are at 4000km and original everything except the grease thing. YMMV!
Not the biggest feet here, just a 44/45 but I find it hard to see past the Vault. They have their shortcomings but I've solved that by adding shaft seals and upgrading the bushings
While I absolutely love my Burgtec Penthouse Flats Mk5 (and MK1s) I will
say that they aren’t very big compared to many.
I've got Spesh [url= https://www.certini.co.uk/components/pedals/specialized-bennies-platform-mountain-bike-pedals--black__20753 ]Bennies[/url] on one bike and [url= https://www.evanscycles.com/brand/nukeproof/horizon-pro-sam-hill-down-hill-flat-pedals-932609#colcode=93260903 ]NP Horizon Pro[/url] on the other. Both are good with the Horizons being slightly grippier. Size 11 feet.
Burgtec B-Rage. had T-macs, swapped them for filed down Deftraps, ran those for years until I tried some B-rage at Rogate. they are fantastic although the 3 centre pins take some getting used to, Size 11/11.5

Gusset slim Jim's. Big and flat, impressed
I’ve not found Vaults very durable. The sealing is poor
+1 for HT PA03A, they're unexciting but really good, and well priced. Not as tough a cage as most alu ones so not ideal for the clumsy, but on the flipside they cost a quarter of some of the other recommendations here. I preferred the Nukeproof Horizon Comp slightly (a Ht pedal with a slightly better, unique cage made for Nukeproof) but they're discontinued
The B-rage looks a beast though.
(I'm still cagey about recommending these, because I'm really light, but I've had a couple of sets of Thinkrider pedals on the go for about 18 months now. They're not an exact HT copy, they use bearings on the inside instead of bushings, but they're very close and the shape is blatantly copied from the Horizon Comp. I've done a couple of pretty hideous rockstrikes and such and one of them's got a very bent pin but they've not missed a beat otherwise)
Size 12 feet here....
I've always used Superstar nano evos, had them for 5 years and still going strong.
Every now and again I get tempted to get a fancy expensive pair of big platform flats but a lot of them are smaller/same size as the Nanos (110 x 101 I think) and I can't justify the price hike for parity or a tiny marginal gain at best.
Saying that, I bought mine in the era when SS pedals were about £40 which no longer seems to be the case.
