xpedo pedals
Anyone have the "Xpedo" TI/Mag or TI/TI pedals? If so what are your thoughts? They are priced low and the wieght of the TI/TI is a claimed 198g. However, is quality sacrificed for low weight? Comments anyone?..gracias.

There is a rider weight limit on those, so as long as you aren't too heavy, you'll be fine. If you are jumping on and off of them, I still would go with some beefier pedals.

I own 2 pairs of Xpedo Mag/Ti but are on my road bikes where they work superbly. They are not, however, recommended for mountain biking due to the extreme vulnerability of the spring tension adjustment housing. You hit a rock once and forget about the pedal. I have heard the Ti/Ti has this design problem fixed but not sure myself.
