I use these on a pk ripper bmx, they last for years, look like bullseye pedals for a 1/3rd the price.

I used to wear football shin pads when i raced, and still had chunks missing including skin hanging off the teeth....., all good fun

If you are going for flats with clips & straps, Although hard to find, i would highly recommend tioga surefoots v's.

Like, and not a bad price.

I always took 1/2" as BMX and 9/16" to be MTB. Shame as I've got a NOSIB pair of DMR V8s in the shed - 1/2" dammit!

1 pc. BMX cranks are 1/2". 3 pc. BMX cranks like Profiles and the like are 9/16".

Right! Every day, etc.

Hi again,

I had a feeling you would like the primo's. i would recommend them to any one asking, and they look fantastic polished.
I know the bike below is wrong for this section and not old enough to be in the retro bmx section either !!!, ( although the redline cranks date to 1980 ).
It just never see's the light of day, infact its one of my forgotton bikes , and thought- what the hell, it shows the primo's in place, ' i find things look better in place than just as objects '.
Any way , here's my PK Ripper with unpolished primo's..
I know its not every ones bag, im just an old git bmx'er .... hope you like.

Awwwwww, ever wish you were 16 again? :cry:

Just looked in the shed - they're GT not DMR.
