Default SRP Black Billet Racing Pedals

I sent some pedals off to get anodized and I got them back yesterday. I am very happy with the results. I am going to offer them in both the solid black finish, and the black/silver finish. On the pedals with the silver holes, I am going to try to make them look a little better. We have to re-countersink the holes to get rid of the anodizing, and they didn't end up quite as clean as we'd like. They look good at arms length and would look great installed, but not quite perfect up close.

For pricing, these are going to run $20 extra for the black and $25 for the two-tone. Right now I have a few sets of the Grid style on the shelf ready to go. Once I get an idea of what people want, or if they even want this at all, I'll try to keep more on the shelf. If I don't have it, it will likely be a couple week turn around time, which I hate, so be patient. If you like these, or not, please let me know. If you'd like to order just shoot a pm or email to check availability. I haven't yet added them to the website, but will do so shortly.

Last, I can't make any guarantee to the finish lasting. This is the thing that has kept me from offering this in the past. Pedals are a wear item. When the raw aluminum wears, it doesn't look bad. When the black anodizing wears, you are going to see bright aluminum shining through. The anodizing is supposed to be harder than the aluminim, so I don't know how long this might take. I just want to be honest and upfront about things.

I do worry that the color might rub off the wear areas? The tips of the grids, etc. Although I don't wear metal shoes.

Hard anodize coatings are VERY TOUGH... I doubt they will wear at all, but if they did, then you got your use out of them

Nice! I think both options are just as nice, aluminum or black, depending on what you are trying to blend into.

I have to say you seem like a good businessman. Very concerned about quality and customer satisfaction. Way to GO!
