    pedals

    So my pedal on my middle weight fell apart. It is a 1/2 thread and I cant seem to find any quality pedals. The bike is a typical rat and I want a pedal that looks good but is well made. You know not some cheep crap. I just want something that has a little thought put in to it. Any ideas?
