The MTB Pedal
I work in an REI bike shop. Every one of us that rides MTB has Chesters. They are light, they are durable, and they are only $39. These things used to be $60. I recommended them all the time then, but at this price you ought to just buy a few so you can change the color with your mood.
But seriously, you can stop shopping for pedals now. These are the ones.
Yes , I recommend this product

Good pedals, but pins rust easily
Solid platform, and good traction to keep feet in place. Whatever steel they use for the pins will rust at the slightest hint of moisture. Replaced with stainless steel screws + lock nuts from the local hardware store, and pedals have otherwise been trouble-free.

Smooth as silk
Yes , I recommend this product
Bearings are buttery smooth right out of the box. Ample traction in the pegs. Strong axles to take a big guys abuse. Worth the money!

Great pedals that have never failed me
I have been using Chesters on 3 different bikes for over 3 years now. They have never failed and I bang them and ride them hard. What I have noticed is that they absorb pedal strikes a lot better than the metal pedals and since they are one color all the way through, they don't look beat-up and scratched like the metal pedals.

Not quite right for me.
No, I do not recommend this product
I tried the Chesters because so many people recommend them. I have used them for over a year now. This is my first experience with a composite pedal, and I do prefer composite to aluminum simply because it isn't so harsh if you strike or catch a pedal on something. As far as the pedal design itself goes, the Chesters are good but not great in my opinion. My feet bounce around on them a bit more than the other composites I'm using right now which are Crankbrothers Stamp 1 Large. The platform is smaller than I would like, and my shoe just doesn't seem to settle into them like it does on the Crankbrothers or aluminum pedals I've used in the past.

Excellent pedals. Can’t go wrong
I got these and some five ten freeriders for my girlfriend for her birthday. She loves these pedals! They’ve really helped her get her confidence on the mountain bike. They help her climb more efficiently and they help her descend confidently. She said “they give me security while pedaling and help me pull all the way through the stroke.” They can take a beating on the rocks on the trail too. They’re definitely durable. She does have some scrapes on her legs, but it’s not from sliding off them—it’s mostly from bumping into them while walking.
