AlanD Posted May 15, 2016 Share I'm leaning towards the saints, I've just never seen them in any shops in JHB. I've hardly seen any flats in jhb for that matter, nor people who use them.

Fr33rider Posted May 15, 2016 Share My personal choice for R1,500 would be either the chromag low profile ones (forget the name) spank spikes or the new Kore pedals. Saints are great as well, and at a lower price point.I'm riding chromag scarabs on one of my bikes and giant flats in the other. The chromags definitely have a better feel and the slim design helps to reduce pedal strikes. That being said, I do think the giant flats are great value for money and are certainly far from the worst you could buy for that money.

igg Posted May 15, 2016 Share Has anyone looked at the spaz? Seems like a pretty good option if you discount the R2k price tag.https://www.specialized.com/za/en/components/drivetrain/boomslang-platform-pedals/105045 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XC much?Any LBS can order them for you, should not take longer than 3 working days.What area are you based?Have Saint's in my "spare box" only used them 2 times. You can have them for R550, if you be willing to pick them up. And i have a pair off giant pedals, powder coated in blue.

BenGraham Posted May 15, 2016 Share Yay another convert! Saints are great. I want Spank Spikes though. But no matter how many rock strikes I impose on my saints they just won't die. I ride XC with them but you do get questions people seem confused from time to time. I enjoy preaching the flat pedal gospel though. henningvr, Thermophage, RockCoach and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
