I am going to replace a few parts hopefully today, pegs, pedals, and grips
So, I am considering the BSD Safari Pedals, I know that they'd grip really well due to I think 20 or more pins on each side. But do they wear down easy? I don't do pedal grinds, the only time my pedal will hit the face of a ledge or rail is if I crank down on a feeble or double peg on accident or something. Also do they chip apart or get torn up fairly easy when you bail off your bike? The whole chipping apart thing I am not really worried about, but just curious to know. One more thing... Have any of you on here, or have any of you heard of people snapping one of the pedal bodies? This I am DEFINITELY not worried about, the last pedal body I only CRACKED was a Black Label Graduate PC Pedal Body (pretty solid pedal too, never officially snapped)
For pegs, there is nothing much to ask on this, but does a flat colored peg (like the Cult Butter for example, not a glossy black sleeve) slide better or worse in general than a peg with a glossy sleeve? (like a colony anyway pc peg, or a deco action bar?)
For grips, again, not much to ask, but I figure there's some effect, can a thicker grip affect your bike control after riding a thinner grip and vice versa? I am considering these different grips and cannot choose, my bars can really only fit up to 155mm I guess, because my Shadow Chula's (148mm) are fairly close to the bend at 28.5 wide
(I do understand thicker grips help with drops but I do not do them TOO often)
Thin Grips
-BSD Dan Paley Slims (I do not mind trimming one end of the grips to accommodate my grip length situation)
-Shadow 138's
-Volume Team Grips (These would probably just go past the start of the bend but I can get used to it)
Thick Grips
-Odyssey Griswald's (on sale)
-Odyssey Dugan's (Many people on here rave about them I guess so why not)
-Demolition Axes
Thank you guys a lot for taking the time to read through, I really appreciate it, I know I usually make long or long-ish posts, but I'd rather be fairly detailed I guess.
Welp, broke past 1000... yeeeee
