Great Pedal but Sharp Edges Draw Blood -- UPDATE: Do Not Remove Cleats!!
The factory pedals that came with my E-bike broke and almost caused me to crash, when the aluminum folding tab broke under stress. The folding mechanism on these is MUCH more sturdy, much better quality than the pedals that came with my eBike. But I am knocking them down one star because the tiny pegs on the pedals, that are designed to help your foot grip the pedal, are so sharp along the edges that they will cut you. I have drawn blood at least three times when hitting my shin on them. I will need to get out my hand grinder and smooth out the edges, so they will stop drawing blood.UPDATE ONE YEAR LATER: I upgraded my rating from four stars to five stars, becasue I discovered the sharp cleats are threaded into place, and can be easily removed just by turning them out with a pliers. So if you need the sharp grip, you can leave them in, if you are an amateur biker and don't want to bleed, you can take them out. Also, these have held up very well with use, including a few wrecks.UPDATE TWO YEARS LATER: Do not remove the cleats. They hold an internal cap in place, that holds a spring in place, that keeps the pedals locked until you stow them. After riding a while without the cleats, the plug pops out, the spring gets lost, and you don't realize what happend until quite a while later when the pedal will not stay deployed. So, if you don't want sharp cleats, just take a dremel tool to round them out.

Love these pedals
Love these pedals, bought them for my folding e bike. Durable, well made, easy to use. Fold up bike and the pedals fold to add ease of storage.

Solid folding mechanism, nice pedals
These far exceeded my expectations. As replacements for some broken plastic folding pedals on my cheap folding bike I wasn’t expecting much and yet they are incredibly nice pedals. Some reviewers mentioned that the bearings are stiff. That’s not a lie at all. I suspect that they’ll loosen up after use, but I’m not really looking for high performance on this bike. They feel solid and well-made and the folding mechanism is excellent. Yesterday, I climbed a steep hill on them and they didn’t flex or feel insubstantial at all.Would I put them on my high end commuter or road bike? Probably not. Would it be catastrophic if you did? Nah. They’d be fine, but I’d personally pay an extra $20 to upgrade to Mikishima folding pedals.Worth noting - as it seems at least one reviewer wasn’t aware - pedals are threaded for each side of the drive train. Each pedal is marked “right” and “left” and they are each threaded in different directions (righty tighty, lefty Lucy does not apply here). To install, line up each pedal on the correct side and screw the pedal onto the crank by rotating toward the front wheel ((and obviously the reverse of that if you’re taking them off).Great pedals - they revived my old folding bike and I couldn’t be happier.

MECHANIC INSTALLED
I rely on reviews and shop carefully. I hope this helps you. I had my mechanic install these so they were 100% proper. I had bought my folding bike pre-owned and the seller had put the (previous) pedals on backward, so I knew that threading properly was an issue. One of those (previous!) fell off about 2 miles from home and I did not want a repeat. If you DIY please realize you need to grease the threads with bicycle grease, and really tighten them each on the proper side and direction (watch a video) or (mechanic told me) the threads will be striped if you ride with them loose. These pedals are sturdier than what came with my bike, and of course they fold! There is a faint L and R printed on them. I fold the pedals when I stop somewhere and lock up my bike, so hopefully a potential thief will just move on rather than figure them out. Much easier to load the bike in the car whether it is folded or not. I may get folding pedals for my bike (non-folding) bike! I really like them.

Solid replacement for stock folding pedal on Brompton and other use cases…
I purchased this set of pedals to replace the stock pedals on a folding bike called a Brompton. The standard folding pedal isn’t great.These aren’t THE highest quality pedals, but they are very good and a good value for what you get. Significantly better than the standard folding pedal on the Brompton.They install like any other bike pedal with a little grease on the threads.What I really like about these is that they lock in the open and closed positions. The standard Brompton folding pedal doesn’t lock in the closed position and it can unfold and scratch the bike.If you don’t have a folding bike, I would consider using these if transporting a bike in the trunk of an SUV. Folding a pedal down would make it easier.Maybe there are other use cases, but for a folding bike, I think these are a no brainer.

Compact
Great for ebike, small enough for boots to move around on like a peg, folding feature is great for transport.

Good for casual ride, but disposable. Bearing is not rebuildable.
Works for almost 1 year. After 2000 miles, both pedals exhibit major wobble. Unfortunately the sealed bearing system is not serviceable. So this is considered a disposable pedals, which is unfortunate, since the pedal itself is built with a nice material.Some of the nuts for the grip also fell off after 6 months.While this is not completely trash, it is unfortunate that the design doesn't allow you to fix the bearing system and making the entire product useless after the core bearing is broken.
