I need some new pedals for my trusty town bike..
I recycled a bashed up pair of Wellgo Mg1's into service a couple of years back but the bearings are truly banjaxed now..

I guess my options are

replace bearings - Is this possible? Has anyone done this?

replace like for like - ouch! £25 and a long wait for delivery from HK or suchlike

find a really good, cheap, reliable and grippy plastic pedal - I like this idea but it has to be a good piece of kit as I have a winter of school runs ahead

just but some snazzy yellow Nukeproof Electrons and live out all my wildest fantasies

help a brother make a wise choice here please folks 🙂

£29.95 from high on bikes. Quick delivery.

I'd be interested in bearing replacement options, though. I'll some myself before too long.

I ride Wellgo V8 copies on my commuter, £8.99 from Chain Reaction and they're not bad for the price.
