Kore Torsion SX V2 pedals


SO GOOD
With a 100mm wide, slightly concave platform and 10 pins per side, the Torsions provide plenty of grip, even when riding choppier trails. The width means there’s enough support even for clumpier shoes like Five Tens and you don’t constantly scuff the cranks. Ours have taken a few knocks during testing but still run smooth and straight.

NO GOOD
Considering the price, we’d have expected to see at least some of the pins screw through from the reverse of the platform for easier access, and a lower weight than 428g. The 20mm depth makes these the thickest pedals on test too.

PRICE 100$
