Magped’s Magnetic Pedal – Crankworx Whistler 2018 | Bike Self Locking Pedals

Everything was great except for that bit of squeaking I experienced. They’re simple to clip into, feel smooth and appear to be very durable.

Yeah… An article written for people with wide feet needs to be written…or are there still no flats for Fred Flintstone riders?

The laces are effective at providing a generous range of tension across the foot, however, the mid-foot loops stubbornly hold the laces in position. To some, this may be a positive as the shoe will keep its adjustment between wears, but for me, I just found it slowed the process. Either way, they serve a functional purpose, and certainly the upper would squirm if it weren’t for them.

When pedaling, both offer a great platform with lots of support. The bearings are smooth, and during our testing we have had zero issues with either. The Look uses a needle bearing under the platform of the pedal, and from our experience this leads to very little service or maintenance.

Rode it from Innertkirchen in June, having first done the Grimsel pass in freezing rain & fog. It’s a long old climb, but never feels overly…
