but unfotunately they don't know that these 1" thread pedals with integrated bearings won't work on a brakeless fixed gear bike, because the pedals bearings always come loose when slowing down, skidding or trackstanding.
apart from all the other things which went wrong on this bike (risers, 44x22, saddle ...blah,blah...) this is a fucking security fail! in the worst case you will loose the pedals and if this is going to happen, i hope that the person who bought it is not on the streets in traffic.
sorry if i missed something.
