  • Those MKS EZY Urban pedals?

    Fucking sweet..

    Flip backwards for flats, forwards for cleats.

    Did I say how smooth they are? They really change how the Brompton feels. If you're still on the stock pedals then I highly recommend getting off them (especially when I felt the crunchy motion that their bearings produce).

    I got my MKS Ezy Superiors this morning (went for Superior mainly due to the fact that there isn't a yellow circlip for me to lose).

    I echo the sentiments about smoothness above. They're also a boat load stiffer, takes the scary crunching feedback the plastic spindle body gives to the standard none folding pedal. Noticeable power transfer when out of the saddle giving it the beans. Highly recommend switching out your Brommy pedals with something in the MKS Ezy range! (unless you really need to fold the pedal everytime: My only negative comment on the Ezy is that you either have a yellow circlip to lose, or a mechanism on the superiors which is difficult to use with gloved hands).

    Also a few days after purchasing my Brompton, I put a Miche crankset on it after taking it off my trackbike (ugraded that to Omnoms). Mainly for aesthetics! The new Brompton chainset is actually pretty stiff and only 30grams heavier than the Miche.

    It's up for sale. It's off a standard geared 3speed so is 50t. Let me know if you're interested otherwise it's eBay next week.
