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.

Think Im going to source some some shorter pins for mine.

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 ?
I'll talk to myself then.

Any news on a replacement Brant?
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
Thanks mate. Not sure I can be arsed searching around so might just relegate them to the spares box and get some more Superstar ones.
Great 😐 weren't they 90 quid or something ?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)
Half price at 40 id imagine, loadsa ppl jumped on that offer.. but a bit of a sod
40 quid. Only had them since feb/march so they've not even gone through a full winter. Should probably try to return them.

Really? [i]Wonderful[/i] customer service, if true.
FWIW my HT 'nanos' have done a season in whistler and 2 in france and are only feeling play now. So id be asking on one to take a look..
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.
