DMR V12 pedals


SO GOOD
The wider 95mm platform, 10 pins per side and concave shaping mean the new V12s don’t disappoint when it comes to grip. We’re big fans of the price too, which makes the build quality and 422g weight even more impressive. Though the 95mm platform isn’t the widest on paper, because the pedal body doesn’t sit tight to the crank arm, there’s space to accommodate wider feet.

NO GOOD
After a couple of knocks, two pins have loosened off. Because they’re the grub screw type and the heads have filled up with mud, they’re tricky to tighten up properly.

PRICE 70$

Standing on the pedals on the small steep climbs is slightly more reactive, surging the Spectral forward that little more eagerly. We need more body language to get the wheels over the roots, but again the 2.4in Mountain King's tread impresses.

Merida Big Seven 100

We've rolled up to our local woods, with a meandering blue trail, some natural wooded tracks and a bit of fire road chucked into the mix to see how the Big Seven 100 tackles trails that entry-level riders are likely to cut their teeth on.
