High End Pedals

[Andy]

Did you see at revzalot.com that the new P35 pedals are now taking preorders? I think they're US$429. Unlike the current CST pedals, they're not drop-down.

Also at that site btw is the new Ajira racing colour scheme, which I like.

Yes I have,

And I'm really considering purchasing these.
I think the quality of the CST pedals compared to the P35r's are par. So purchasing one of these will be based on other considerations like dropdown/floor-up(?), and the looks
Does anyone of you have race with drop-down pedals before? Whats the main difference in feel?

[Andy]

Lucas, you probably know this, but Julian Dyer and Martijn Top have the CST drop down pedals.

Lucas,

Looks like the new Revzalot pedals will go up in price if you order after August 12:

Thanks for the notice Andy.

Hi guys,

Yes, that's right, I think Anton will ask 479.- USD as regular price after August 12. Also, ASS has got an unit to test but I have no idea when they'll release their next issue. Hopefully before the 12th August so that potential buyers can have a completely unbiased review before the pre-order ends.

Lucas, one difference to CST is the use of hall sensors. I must say I've always hated pots, because I hate to tinker with electronic equipment and now it's really good to know that I don't have to bother with that anymore, as the hall sensors should last forever. Regarding the pushdown and hangdown design, that's a matter of taste. Real race-cars have almost all pushdown designs to maintain a low COG but also because of ergonomics (the pivot point of the pedals is at the same place as the pivot point of your feet and that feels a bit better and gives you a bit more control) but some people prefer the hangdown design because that's what they're used to in their street cars.

It's however easier to adjust the spacing of the pedals in the CST I think, as they're mounted on a bar and can be slided to the left and to the right if I'm not mistaken. In the revzalot pedals you would need to do more work to slide them to the left or to the right and that's also why Anton asks the exact dimension and spacing you want before he builds the pedals. The height is easily adjustable though.

I guess you'll be happy with either one, once you try a load-cell brake, you'll wonder how you could drive without it for so long.

Cheers,
Dani

Ive just put my order in

Hopefully should mark an increase in pace for me.

I know it seems incredible, after my stunning victory against Juha and Lucas last night.

Better luck next time ladies

[Lucas]

Thanks

Looking forward to nice fights again Stan

Just ordered my set, and Tjeerd's set!
We both ordered the pedal set + button box.

Looking forward trying them

I'm extremely interested in how they work out, as I hope to get the CST F1 load cell pedals when/if they are released. I think you have to relearn braking a bit at the start.
