Cheap & very lightweight, but how have they lasted over 10,000km?
Check out Huel Black Edition: rebrand.ly/tracevelo
A few years ago, I purchased some fantastic lollipop style pedals on AliExpress. I reviewed them back in early 2021, dubbed them Chinaplay pedals, and recommended them for the following reasons:
Lightweight - They weight 150g for both pedals
Adjustable - Cleats offer high levels of adjustment in float & stance
Stack Height - These pedals offer a low stack height
Ease of use - They are very easy to clip into
Build Quality - Titanium, aluminium, and steel construction
Great value - The steel variety costs around £35

But since then, I have been using them on my road bike non-stop, and in that time have clocked up just over 10,000km on them, so how have they held up?
In this video I’ll show you the pedals in detail, and compare the worn pedals to a new unused set. I will also give you some tips and tricks to get more miles out of your pedals, and finally show you the best way to clip in on your bike with a new set.
Got any questions or comments, stick them below 👇 and I'll try and get back to as many of you as I can!

I love cycling, and I love getting pro cycling kit for less. If it’s cheap, from China, and made of carbon fibre, I’m interested!
