Thanks all for the replies. Some of those pedals look very classy! I will have to try some to see what works best.

I gave a friend a pair of red Crank Brothers 50/50 pedals for her b-day. She commutes in Seattle and said the pedals made a huge difference for her, particularly on rainy days, where her feet used to slide in the pedals.

Love me my Sunringle ZuZu pedals - this are BMX pedals that just rock! The bearings are sealed, the pins are adjustable. Right now they are only on my mountain bike, but I rode them on my Gunnar & LHT until I was ready to return to clipless for the road.

My feet do NOT slip off the pedals - and while I currently wear hiking shoes for mountain biking even if my foot lands on the pedal in the wrong place my foot stays on the pedal until I am at a place where I can safely adjust my foot.

I've not found non-BMX style flat pedals where my feet wouldn't slip off, that is just my personal experience.

Ergon now makes a flat pedal! Read more about it here, I've no idea how they are as far as keeping your foot on the pedal. If I hear good things about them I may consider putting them on my LHT.

MTB.com just released a review on the "thinnest BMX pedals" released by Tioga, they are also quite light and are dual-concave rather than flat. They also aren't available just yet but they looked interesting enough to mention.

I actually really liked the MKS Sneaker Pedals when I had 'em on my Trek 520 bike. Was debating between the MKS pedals (which I also like) and the MKS Sneaker pedals.

Grant said to go w/ the Sneaker ones if I wasn't going to put cages onand save the $ so I did.

Speedplay Drillium pedals are what I use on my LHT. I really like them and slipping is a non issue. I have a black LHT and the pedals are black and I think they looks good.
