crc have wellgo v12 copies at 24€

the dmr v8 are also around that price.

are the wellgo's the same as the dmr's? i noticed the pins are threaded through the back of the wellgo's, is this a better design than the dmr?

bearing and longevity?

cheers

If they're threaded through the back then they should be easier to remove should you mash one.

It appears that half of the pins on the V8s (the silver ones) are non-removable. Stupid, stupid idea!

but the dmr v8 comes in purple and would match the alpine frame....

If you can find a pair s/h pr1mo BMX platform pedals. Lightweight , bearings are silky smooth even after years of use.

I have had the same pair of DMR v12s now for 2 years. 1 Service and still run fine. I got them for £20ish tho and would never say they are worth the RRP.
