Shimano PD-MX30 Flat Pedal
Old favourite
The Good
Good if you want to wear normal trainers, and just cruise around the streets etc. Has a nice subtle concave shape to it, so your feet sit snugly into the pedal. Also has adjustable pins, if you need the added grip.
The Bad
A bit chunky if you prefer the more slimline look. And a bit dated, and also a tad on the heavy side.
Overall Review
Excellent all-round pedal with a history and a pedigree. Perfect if you don't want to shred your trainers up.

Gravity Light Handlebar
Shore Riding
The Good
WIDE! So much leverage, super stiff, awesome bar for someone tall looking for a nice bar, or just wider bars (me)
The Bad
WIDE! Hahaha, I always clip my bars on trees. It certainly keeps you on your toes when you're trying not to break your fingers
Overall Review
WIDE! Great bar, ergonomics are spot on, very similar backsweep compared to the Gravity 777's.

RF atlas FR cranks.
The Good
Tough, Fairly light wieght, Looks pretty sweet.
The Bad
The price, and no steel threaded pedal insert may concern some.
Overall Review
I like them. I was at first concerned about the lack of a steel insert. I've torn out pedals from cranks that don't have them so I was a little worried. However I've had these for almost a year and no issue yet. I got them in Black and the finish is holding up really well.

The Good
Light, strong, clean, beautiful
The Bad
A bit on the spendy side.
Overall Review
The best post. Super strong, it has an ovalized inner diameter (more material where needed less where not), and a "one piece" design. But perhaps one of the best features is the finish. It is tough. I hate when post paint fades and wheres through after a few times of moving the post (fsa). looks crappy and cheap. And the OD of the post always seems to be perfect, no forcing into the seat tube should be nessasary.

Race Face Atlas 35 Handlebar
Awesome bar!
The Good
Looks and feels great(2010 bar looks even better than the 2009 bar)
The Bad
might be a tiny bit heavy if you are a weight winnie.
Overall Review
Best bar I have ever ridden, plenty of space to get the most comfortable brake placement and it has a very high quality feel.

Supreme DH!
The Good
Handling, geometry, ride quality. I also like suspension that does not blow through travel. The progressive rate this bike has keeps the pedals off the ground but still corners in a sweet spot so to speak.
The Bad
It isn't the lightest, but that's far less important to me than the handling, which is like gold.
Overall Review
There is lots of good with this frame, but mostly it comes down to the ride. For me it is a super good race bike in the respect that the closer I am to the limit the better it performs. It is really good on the edge (probably because of the setup I'm running, long and slack) and is reassuring in races.

Hadley 20mm Dowhill Front Hub
Freeride burly
The Good
Minimal maintenance, bulletproof when built with Mavic 823 rim
The Bad
Only being able to have 1 of these on one bike ;)
Overall Review
I've been riding the same Hadley hubs on my freeride/DH setup for over 3 years and have never had an issue. They handle all the abuse and more

Wellgo MG-52 Flat Pedal
Decent pedal
The Good
Bearings have lasted me a long time now. Good sized platform at a good price.
The Bad
Not a good grip with a thin layer of debris
Overall Review
This pedal really isn't to bad overall. The platform size feels great on my wide feet and I don't get any pressure points on the bottom of my foot like some others. I did however find that when I was riding in either wet conditions and an ever so thin layer of mud got in the fine grooves I lost a ton of grip. I also got that with really fine dirt and then I was relying on the pins which by themselves weren't great. If you are looking for a good ol' flat pedal for jumping or anything like that
