Paul, if you still want to sell the pedals, I'll take them. I'm overdue for getting Rose some better pedals.

OK, Bud --
   I'll mail 'em to ya...  if they work out, pay me whenever.
 
   I put Crank Bros. 5050X platform pedals on the Stealth SXP, and rode it last night from Forest/75 to downtown and back.  I gotta say, after almost three years of SPD pedal attachment, riding with platforms instead SUCKS -- especially going up rollers.  I didn't have a problem with my feet slipping off, it's just that I missed the "pull" capability that I'm used to...

I'm glad you mentioned that Paul, I wouldn't have thought of that detail. Shucks, the pull is half of my cadence! I'ld grind to a halt if all I could do was push.
