EB14: Crank Brothers Launches Limited Edition Colors for Pedals

Ideally I’d like CB to focus on improving the quality of their pedal instead of the color of their pedal. Eggbeaters use to be so tough, but the new quality is awful. My 5+ year old Candy pedals are as good as new, yet I’m on my third pair of Eggbeater (new generation). Thankfully CB knows they fall apart so they rebuild them free.

Love the colors, and I love color coordinating the shiny bits on my bike, as much as the next guy / gal does.

Best of all, I even hear that the warranty card will be color coded, too, so that when the pedals inevitably break prematurely, you’ll even be able to match your anodized bits to the warranty paperwork.

CB, you’ve done it again! ; )

I’d like to see them offer the color choice “bare metal” like when they started, because the goofy colors always scratch off and look like shite after a while.

The new version of the eggbeater is a huge step backwards in term of service life! One wet ride ride or washing and the “new and improved needle bearings” will get crunchy. The other thing that sucks is that spa treatment has doubled in cost and three pairs of pedals that I sent in went missing. In my opinion stick with the 2 models on their pedals to avoid the crappy needle bearings.
Love the release, have never broken anything and have been using them for 10 year CX, XC and enduro, however my days of telling people how great they are has come to an end.
