Bike pedals, maybe not the first thing you think of replacing, but I've been trying out a couple of different clipless pedals over the last few months, including a cheap magnesium set from AliExpress.
In this review, I’ll be comparing the different pedals, to give you some idea of whether you should upgrade, and what to watch out for along the way.
Got any questions or comments, stick them below 👇 and I'll try and get back to as many of you as I can!
