I think I got my flat pedals from Nashbar one year for winter. They were hanging out in my truck last summer when I forgot my bike shoes when driving to a 3-hour ride, Fisher Creek in Sun Valley, Idaho. A friend had a wrench, and of course I had tennies in my truck, too. Good timing! I probably missed some efficiency on the upstroke, but it was pretty back-to-8-years-old on the singletrack.

I think they were just $20 or $30.

Have fun!
