Buy the best pedal (gear) you can afford. I don't know what kind I have but I bought them at my local bike shop. I love them!
i bought some expansive ($60) pedals with those screws in it and i almost fall everytime i stop, my foot being stuck in it. i just ordered some sandpaper covered pedals. $30, cheap one are 2 to 5.
I have ridden the chester/fookers and I agree that for larger feet the fookers are a bit small. another important factor is pin placement, on the fookers/chesters the pins are farther from the edges of the pedals. this means that they do not grip as well if you foot is hanging off the pedal, since your weight will be on the outside edge where on higher end pedals the pins are on the outside. Also I have had a set of Kona wah wah 2 composites and loved the feel, but I recently broke them. I am going to go for some sam hill nukeproof pedals next.
I've also got the knockoff pedal called EXCELSIOR Bought it for 9 dollarsBeen using it for almost 7 months and still no problem, been using it on trail, muddy terrain, dusty terrain, submerged it on water, left on sun and abusedStill good as new and performed as newNever serviced it because as i mentioned it's feels newThe grip is phenomenalThe only problem is my shin, it's not as durable as the pedalKeeps bleeding everytime

The problem with encouraging buying the pedals you mentioned will drive the price up for those pedals.As of 20/02/22 48 for those Fooker pedals so it's no longer a bargain Amazon UK.
Finally someone shows them used.
Apparently they tripled the price of their knock offs. They are 60 dollars in Canada. Certainly not paying premium money for knock offs.
Really great companies dont charge you twice what a product is worth. Especially ones having their products made in China.
a couple of weeks i was looking at the fookers but it seems like now they dont sell them anymore cuz i cant find them anywhere where they were before altho the chesters have gone down in price
i have 3 1988 rockhoppers all with original composite pedals - no problems
Nylon doesnt hold up if you are strong
too much questions :/
Awesome vid man.... so hard to find great vids and cool people doing them... U got both covered buddy .. Thanx so much for doing all these vids keep up the great job !!!!!!
At this point maybe Fooker should just but out Chester ala Segway/Ninebot

FOOKERS are great. The only riders against them are the ones that got shafted and payed double and seeing the success of the cheaper option.
I knew it !
Whats the better in pedals? Ball bearings or DU Bearings?
Hard to tell for sure, but I think there are copies of those aluminum pedals out there as well. Wonder if it's possible to buy the knockoffs, then refurbish them with an official rebuild kit once the bearings wear out?
What pedals are you currently running? Let us know down below!

I have had two sets of composite Kona Wah Wah 2 pedals and because of how my foot sits on the pedal, they both snapped on the spindle. Finally replaced them with Aluminum Wah Wah 2s and no issues. So I do think aluminum pedals are worth the extra money simply for durability.
nacho libre , dinner for schmucks , the office, old school , 70s show , napoleon dynamite, saving silverman, dumb n dumber, black sheep .....been 2 years but lets see lol !!
Anything metal pedals here that don't cost my life savings? lmao
Would be good if not for all the random movie/tv clips.. kind of ruins it for me. Thanks for the reviews.
Frank the Tank in the Movie Old School!!!
How do you not laugh after each video clip? They are great.......oh yeah pedals are cool too!
Hi.I am new to this sport.the pins look so dangerous.are they dangerous?thay look so sharp.
Hi.good morning.do the pins/screws slice my leg in an accident? you know ribg unnder my knee.sorry for any bad english.
Crackbrothers stamp 11 any metal pedal with traction pins when they hit you in the shin when u need te get off
4:22 what shoe is he using there ?
Aluminum pedals are like jewelry or bling for your bike? Why would you put jewelry on something you plan on smashing into rocks, roots, and trees?
The cheapest one

The Michael Scott cameo earned you a sub haha
You get a likr just for the Michael Scott thats what she said.
the first movie is nacho lebre
I use di di mau p[edals!
I love flat pedals, I really like to ride wearing sandals (yes Im odd like that, I like the ventilation), I dont have fancy one with the screws just moltet in spiks but by now they a smooth, like the ass of a young woman coming out of a weekend in a spa retreat.
I'm pretty sure the name fooker was purposefully close to the fbomb
Did raceface pay him?
Welcome to capitalist globalization
I'm giving my bike a makeover. I bought the Fookers today
ngl, i'm gonna buy the knock off one just for the name
"Atleast until this covid thing is over", your never gonna take thode off
Its a good thing theyre not making T-shirts.Fooker T: Different but almost the same.
Well I bought real raceface Chesters for the price of fookers since they were on discount
whats funny is I curently have that Fooker set in my amazon shoping cart lol. I dont do trail riding or mountain biking, More of a city rider. a big part of the reason they are in my cart is they are a rather pleasant shade of blue.
I bought the fooker because the blue matches my decals better
I would buy the Fookers if they were a lot cheaper - hell I can't even afford a used bike why would I pay for the namebrand.
Pho King Good
look at these goofy fookers lmao
Yes, but Fooker is a great name.
2:40 this part I remember when this video was first uploaded I turn on my subtitles or captions and it was hilarious when it says "the f*ckers" I regret not having that screenshot when I saw it because after a while the youtube update and it was changed... it was spelled correctly hahahahaha
Is there a new video about these pedals?
There's a lot of these, actually. You might wanna search ZTTO, Race Work, Sagmit, Excelsior, Rockbros and too many to mention knock-off brands. It's very common in Asia.
Fookers on UK Amazon are more expensive now than the Chesters
Awesome video man lmao
Meh, its a knock-off product. Like the cheap Frosted Flakes knock-offs called Frosty Shapes or whatever.You dont buy them thinking theyre the real, brand-name product, you buy them because theyre cheap and theyll do.I think theyre for different people IMO
We have the same pedal dude...mine is black nd its proven tough ang efficient...it holds my foot well...nice review...
Does this pedal can handle jumps?
I just ordered.
Could you tell me up to what weight of rider will they support.
Good to hear that!As read mixed reviews on this pair of pedal.Will order it shortly. About USD14 here in Malaysia :)
Great review. thanks for telling the size..
uhm count: 43
Hardtail gang

Yes its a highly recommended pedals..affordable and looks sturdy, nice review bro..
My brother bought me that pedal in large size and blue green color. He bought it at around $12 (600 Philippine Pesos).

Cool man
Great content bro!!! I hope you continue making them!!!!!
Great review, think I'll get these now.

It's actually a very good pedal for the money. They cost around $8 here in Shanghai.
