So are we calling Clipless pedals Clip pedals now?

We are now, still, yes. 

If no one said it so far, in Germany they call them “click”pedals…

That makes sense, German is a very literal language.

If the OneUp SPD's last even half as long as a shimano they'll be incredible

I think I'm the only one to not have Shimano pedals last forever. I get 1-2 seasons on them before the bearings are shot.

Making me feel easy on stuff. I've somehow got a pair of Crank Bros mallet E's from 2016 that have seen 6 bikes and 8 seasons of riding without ever even been taken apart or any service of any kind, I'm too scared to now to touch them now, it'll ruin them 😅. I feel like I'd be handing Shimano's down to my great grand kids.

I'll be interested as to how well the new One Up's hold up. I find their flats to be hit or miss and the service window is way to short for the average user. The 99% have no idea pedals need to be serviced over a 10 years, let alone 50h.I had a pair in my hands today and they looked solid, but hopefully they are a bit more robust than some of their alloy flats.

I wonder how it happens that everybody seems to be forgetting about the Chromag Pilots. They are my absolutely favourite Pedal out there because of their SPD compatibility and they last forever. The seals are amazing, the first pair now has 2 seasons on it with one containing pretty much daily riding in Whistler and they didn't develope any kind of play or roughness in the bearings. Having 2 pairs running on 2 bikes right now and so far the second pair keeps up with the first one, kind of a no brainer. You just hop on and they never disappoint. They roughly weight a 100 grams more than the OneUp's but that's worth it IMO as they re basically indestructible. And they look dope as well.

Let’s be honest Rachel will make a comeback on the belt driven bike and snap up the $100k before anyone else
