How evil am I?

[KnottedYet]

SKnot's bike (which was to be my bike until he fell in love with it) has Kona Jacksh*t pedals. He's ridden it maybe 4 times in the last 5 months.

I want-crave-deeply-desire a set of Jacksh*ts for my Surly Cross Check. (which I bought when the Kona Smoke I'd bought became his bike.)

Would I be an evil mom if I switched his Jacksh*ts for the piece-o-sh*ts my Surly CC came with?

I mean, he doesn't ride "his" Kona Smoke much. And I yearn for the Jacksh*ts I blissfully experienced before he saw the Smoke and claimed it.

I have a pedal wrench right here...

(and $30 Jacksh*ts are backordered at the moment)

Me and Phil Wood, yeah, we're like *this*.

I did the evil deed.

The Jacksh*ts are on my Surly, and the no-name bear traps are on the Kona Smoke.

I swear, if SKnot wants the Jacksh*ts back, I'll switch 'em again.

Phil Wood green grease and Inline pedal wrench helped me do it. (if there's a problem, blame them...)

aaaahahaha... I've swiped my son's cyclocomputer AND his bicycle lock (from his locked bike) multiple times now... bad, bad mother.

I got my own computer now, but dang, that lock sure comes in handy when I need to go down for groceries.

My dh tried something similar. After he bought a new bike I offered to buy his old one, that I'd been using for trail riding in the woods ever since he put a short stem on it. He was kind enough to just give it to me. But several weeks later! he obviously felt he could just come and claim the saddle (ok, honey, your favourite saddle) but ALSO the short stem which was the reason it now fit me at all.

He couldn't understand why I got all huffy and puffy and indignated...

I can't imagine why you love these so. The reviews are terrible.

I think you did the right thing Knot. heck, you could even tell him that you gave him NEW pedals.

wow! from the reviews it sounds like sknot got the better deal!
Hope you have better luck than the reviewers did... But heck, I know nothing of the pedals in question, so I suppose I shouldn't comment.
ALSO, it needs to be noted that as a whole, those who LIKE a product are less likely to post a review, but those who DIS- LIKE a product- they want to tell the world!

And life - don't forget to mention that you gave him life!
