Nylon bicycle pedals are nothing new, but they were underestimated for a long time. Many bike riders confuse nylon pedals with plastic pedals. They think Nylon pedals are the same as the “plastic pedals” used on the original bike, but in fact, nylon pedals are much stronger than plastic pedals and are especially strong and wear-resistant, and it’s easier to make gorgeous colors… like green scary (funny).
Back to the “grip” most needed to flatten pedals, nylon cleats clearly can not “stick” into the sole like metal nails, but for most users, it is enough.
To give a vivid example, a metal spike into the sole of a shoe feels like an embroidery needle into the meat, while a nylon spike feels like a toothpick with a broken point into the meat. Of course, if a metal spike did hit your flesh, it would be too sour and sweet. Even if do not stab the flesh, the metal nail is also very expending the shoe, each hook a foot pedal all feels that the vamp receives the heavy injury.
Based on the characteristics of nylon material itself, Nylon bike pedal in durability is much better than alloy pedal, more wear-resistant, and not easy to deform. In the weight factor, it also has superiority compared to the alloy pedal, the partial nylon pedal’s weight may even be under probe 200g.
A pair of non-injury legs, no injury shoes, durable and lightweight nylon foot pedal is a very good choice.
1. Wear-resistant does not deform, not fade
2. Color diversity
3. Lightweight
4. It’s cheaper than an alloy pedal, save money
Since Nylon pedals have so many distinct advantages, why not choose one for your bike?
