Shinamo DX 9/16 pedals - whats the score?
« on: June 12, 2011, 09:02 PM »
Hi all

Whats the deal with the crazy priced DX pedals such as these:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/190543573246

Is it because they are 9/16?  I thought all pedals had the same size thread?  If not, how do you know which cranks have which threads?

I search the Sticky but no joy..

ta,

Paul

One piece cranks have 1/2 threads, 3 piece have 9/16

Original DX 's are worth a good few quid anyway regardless of thread size  and seem to be getting quite rare too

ta for that - I did not know that (and I have just got a redline 3 piece).

So, 9/16 DX pedals demand much more than 1/2 pedals?  In the last 2 weeks or so, a list member sold some DX pedals on eBay for approx £185!  I presume the pedal can take either size spindle so, you could (in theory) just simply swap the spindle?

Im new to old school BMXing and Im still trying to come to terms with some of this stuff (like pedal thread sizes affecting price)  ???

ta,

Paul

yes paul you can swop the spindles over  :daumenhoch:
maybe yes the 3 piece version do fetch slightly more maybe due to 3 piece cranks being so much more expensive that 1 piece cranks  :-\

Get a half decent set, a file and sone sandpaper and some glass paint. Job done. Fook paying that money if you're not anal about perfect bits and just want a decent looking set.
