[Closed] which flat pedals under £50

Time pedals?

Saints can be had under £40.

superstar

Carbon Cycles often do the same pedals as superstar but a £10ish cheaper

Shimano saint, but remove the washers under the pins.. It transforms them!

Second Saints.

Superstar nanos

Saints again.

Saints again

Saints....

Yep, Saints

Carbon cc's version of the Nanos, only about £30

Carbon CC Nanos +1

Wellgo MG 1, light, £25

My Nanos are still going strong after the best part if 18 months and have been used in some grim conditions. Even on a bike with a low bb they still have all of their pins which is a first for me. They grip well with 5 10's and come in lots of colours if that matters.

If you choose the carbon cycles ones remove the pins and loctite them before use. I didn't and several fell out.

Nanos the rest are just over branded an dont last as long

Saints chainreaction about £35 and yep remove the washers great pedal.

Superstar Nano Thru pin.

+1 Wellgo Mg1. All over eBay for around £30. Light, cheap, great platform and mega grippy.

At the risk of sounding like a parrot, Saints. Much better than my Strait lines that are twice the price.

Nano through pin

Saints

Nano through pin or MG-1... Nanos feel bigger and have a slightly better platform, but MG-1s are a bit lighter. I have a pair of each - and each have survived 2,500 miles with no problems.

If you can get them then Saints for damn sure...But if not, then don't discount Nukeproof Electron pedals (Nylon-reinforced composite body), or Neutron pedals (metal version).

Saints are nice, but if its just for a commuter id go with some Plastic jobbies and straps?

Do I man up and just hope it gets better

Wellgo mg1 with a few longer pins in them

Have Saints (as mentioned above remove the washers) on one bike and Nanos on another - like them both.

I've used Wellgo MG1s and Nanos and the Nanoes are miles better - thinner profile and bigger platform, grippier. No contest IMO.

I've got a set of the Nanos (from Carbon Cycles/Exotic) and think they're pretty good, platform is a good size for my UK13 feet and I've managed to replace all of the pins I've lost so far.

I've had MG1s in the past and think they're a bit too soft, the bearings died a bit too quickly (probably 9 months) for my liking too.

Another vote for Wellgos here. Bought a pair as "get me home" pedals with a new bike once and decided I liked them so much I never got round to replacing them!

I have Nukeproof's (electron/proton can never remember which) on both bikes, very happy with them

By the way I have two dodgy knees (broken ACL in both so twisting is dangerous) and I have much greater confidence with flats. I also think spds give more power due to upstroke but that equally pits more pressure on your knees. The only downside with my flats is all the dings in my shin/calf from minor offs, the grip pins on the pedals are 'kin sharp. With five-ten shoes and Nukeproof's my feet are very firmly planted on the pedals.

Another vote for Nukproof electrons, decent price too at £35(ish).

my shins love superstar nano's

Agreed. I bought some when I got my HT and liked them so much I ordered another pair for the FS.
My previous fav were Mg1's that now are on the wife's bike.

Saints - bought some this week...

Can't say I've noticed a difference in feel between my Nanos and friends' Saints. Saint bearings seem to be hit or miss though; one friend is on his 3rd warranty pair now.

Superstar Nano Thru pin.
