Excellent Large Platform SPD Pedal
I have been riding SPDs for decades. On mountain bike I like to set them just tight enough that I can't bunny hop out of them, and no tighter, so that I can get in and out of them without thinking about it. Because of this, the foot moves a lot when clipped in and I need to feel a solid platform in order to ride with confidence. Also, when my foot is coming on and off the pedal frequently, and may or may not click in, it needs to be big enough that I find it every time. Finally, they need to be tough.I have only had my Ripper's a few weeks but I've put well over 100 miles on them, mostly in the West Hills of Las Vegas. Very rocky terrain. Setting the tension to my satisfaction took all of a couple blocks and I haven't thought about it since. On the first day I thought my feet moved just a little too freely over the pedals during normal riding. I decided to install just the front two studs on each pedals face to conform to the shape of my shoe. By day two the pedals disappeared from my consciousness. They are just there. That's exactly what I want from a pedal.I have had platform pedals with and without rocker mechanisms on the clip. I find the rocker angle makes getting in the clip much more natural. I don't have to think about it. The Ripper rocker does what I expect.I do bang on pedals pretty hard. Sometimes I'm amazed at how hard I hit rocks. "How did I not see that?" I've hit these hard enough to pick the rear wheel up off the ground. Me and the bike weigh 260 lbs. The pedals show no sign of stress. That being said, I'm not a big jumper. I do drops with flat landings no taller than about 2 feet and have never had the chance to do big gaps. Most of my 'jumping' falls squarely into the bunny-hopping-over-roots category. So, unfortunately, I can't give the lowdown how sturdy the shafts are from that perspective.Finally, I love the idea of the rebuild kits. The last design of pedal I used for 25 or 30 years and was completely happy with them. But they no longer make them. I found one new set on eBay and realized if I break them or get a bad bearing I'm out of luck. I took a chance on the Funn Ripper and I'm glad I did.I wouldn't change a thing.

Great all mountain pedals
I have two sets of these pedals. They replaced spd mountain pedals on my Hightower and my wife's Tallboy. You can get clipped in so much easier than the Shimano pedals they replaced. The platform offers superb support and works great when you miss the clip in. Very nice to have a solid platform in dicey situations trying to get clipped back in thanks to the spring loaded rocker mechanism. Brilliant! Release is great, very adjustable and have had no premature releases. My shoe is a 49 and the wife is a 39 so they work well over a wide range of sizes and body weight. Depending on shoe type pins may not hit your sole. A flatter sole shoe will work best and the pins do keep the floating to a minimum. Pins or not the pedals perform very well, my wife does not use the pins and likes them best that way. These are the best pedals we have used. I would not want to ride without them now that we made the switch.A word about Funn customer service:I have had the opportunity to interact with the Funn customer service team and they exceeded my expectations with the way they handled my situation. They stand behind there products and are very quick to respond.Durability has not been an issue and would not expect it to be. We ride in the PNW wet and muddy at times so I pulled the pedals apart before install to service them with my grease of choice. The rubber o rings that seal the axle to the pedal body were pretty dry and needed a light coat of grease IMO to help with sealing out water, dirt and preventing o ring wear. You can do a quick service right on the bike. Unscrew the cap on the outside end of the pedal, 6mm allen, and remove the 8mm nut and the pedal body slides right of the spindle. Clean and re grease and you are good to go. Quick, easy, and will defiantly extend the internals life with routine maintenance.The Funn Rippers have taken the worry out of missed clip ins and really improved our overall riding experience. Highly recommended!

Well made, large platform SPD pedal.
Good SPD-compatible pedal. Verity of colors available.Large platform helps during DH. Easy to clip-on - clip-off. Easy to install. Two pints were missing when arrived.Compatible with carbon crank guards.One pedal became squeaky after two weeks of riding (the clip insert during swivel), got fixed with WD-40.

FREAKING AWESOME PEDALS AND AAA+++ Customer Service !!!!!
These pedals are TOP NOTCH !!!! The pedals have very nice action and look fantastic. You can truly use these as clipless (SPD) or Flats easily. When they arrived, one of the pegs was not in the package. I contacted the company and they responded immediately and sent the peg out right then. I received it less than a week later from China. VERY GOOD customer service pal !!!! How do you beat that !!!! Thanks for the awesome pedals......I will buy again.

Great looking and easy to slip into
I bought these pedals to go on my black and orange ebike. Not only do they look great, they are easy to slip into. I ordered a blue pair because they were so great to go with my mountain bike.

No signs of wear after 500mi trail riding
Had to wait until I got the obligatory mileage before I would comment on these pedals. I can now report that they have performed exceeding my expectations. The rocker clip feature works well allowing ease of entry of the cleats. I'm actually using my 20 year old cleats and they work fine. Set the tension low so I can kick out of the clip when I get in trouble. The usable foot bed area coupled with the rocker clip makes the use non SPD shoes a simple choice. However, I do recommend using the grip pins.

Too wide
They pedal is so wide that the back inside pin will not contact bottom of shoe least in my case. That means you cant run the back pins as doing so would be uneven with only 1 pin contacting the the bottom of shoe so they can only be run with the front pins. They just went a little too wide in the design, you would think they would have tested them with bunch of shoes before they designed them so wide

Great Pedals
I have had these pedals for 2 months. They are great. Easy in and out and a wide plate form when not using clip in shoes. I was missing a peg for the pedal and FUNN sent me a whole set for replacement. Great company and customer service.
