7 pairs at about $15 bucks is a little over $100
the metals would probably be cheaper in the long run

I got them in white coz we didn't have any black ones left, but I am gunna order some black bodies soon.
They will probably release limited edition coloured bodies rather than whole new pedals

i ride plastics cause they slide better.
trails are not skateparks, they exist solely from the work and dedication of local riders. so next time you start complaining about not having local trails to ride, you only need look at yourself.
