I see a few of these on ebay for £10 are they any good, i have the tioga surefoots with straps but would like somthing a tad bigger with no messing about.
Thanks
Mark
 
a great pedal in my opinion, i have v8 and v12 and cant really notice any difference, look for the newer ones with the greaseport though ;)
 
Agreed, they are a practical, robust, and not too weighty flat pedal. I have a set for occasional use when I feel like doing some fooling about in the woods. And the grease port versions seem to keep going forever.
The Wellgo versions are pretty good too.
 
I have 3 pairs with greaseports and they seem to last forever.

IIRC, at least 2 of those pairs were second-hand and arrived attached to cranks or complete bikes. Still going strong.

V12s have fully sealed bearings, V8s don't.

They use exactly the same body, 12s are slightly heavier because of the extra bearing gubbins....

I run V12s - they're awesome pedals and you can pimp them right up too!!!

Had my red V12s for many years now and they still run great. Only had to take one off its spindle in all that time as well.

Stuck some Shimano DX MX30 on my Pace though, new DX that is and they are nice and smooth but you have to swap out the pins on them as the ones in them when they arrive are too short.
 
Wellgo MG1 are worth looking at, 380g a pair & from ~£30 on eBay (528g for V8 & 536 for V12's) available in black, white, graphite grey, orange, green & purple
 
I've got a couple of sets of V8s and V12s , find them both to be bombproof pedals. Very useful for when I don't want to be clipped in ;)

Recommended!!
