Popular Post Rehab1 Posted May 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) Since many members in the US will soon be receiving their new V10 and V10F models shortly if anyone wants to experiment replacing the OEM rubber grips on the pedals with industrial grip tape please let me know. I just purchased some high quality self adhesive grip tape and applied it on my ACM/ Mten 3 pedals. This stuff is fantastic and should far exceed the gripping power of the factory V10 rubber grip pads and most other pedal grips. I had to purchase a long roll of the tape and I have enough for 6 more wheels. If interested please let me know and I will supply the material free of charge. You will only need to pay for UPS shipping based on your zip code. Please continental US only. Paypal recommended method of payment for shipping costs.

Now it's starting to annoy me a bit... I find my Inmotion V8 motor notice if you can call it that king relaxing as it gives me a sense of "speed" or workload. And riding pass pedestrians or bicycles have a chance to hear me conning up close to the avoiding or at least to some degree minimize their suprise or scared jumping reaction. So to me a dead quite wheel would be bad due to me riding on bicycle paths and commuting to work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is stiff but I’m not sure what you mean by ‘snap on’. Are you referring to a wrap around design? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you referring to a wrap around design? like if u took a pedal off, flipped it upside down and then molded that stuff over the bottom and the sides and even curled it over slightly to the top of the pedal. think like a pringle can lid. or peanut can lid.

Yes the silicone would probably work. I would be concerned if the silicone covered pedal touched a concrete or asphate surface while performing a sharp turn. It might grab onto the surface enough to cause an abrupt loss of momentum. Edit: Unfortunately double faced tape does not stick to the silicone Edited May 4, 2018 by Rehab1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacPara Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 That stuff that serious motorbikers use on their knee pads to "glide" over asphalt while their knee is touching might be something to try. You drill two holes through the plastic and the pedals and put a strong (black) countersunk bolt through it, countered with a nut that fits inside the hexagon structure in the pedal. You could scrape the plastic but the pedals would still look shiny.... Not sure you'd like to drill through a new pedal, of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure you'd like to drill through a new pedal, of course yeah, silicone wouldn’t be good. nylon is probably the material in those knee coaster the racing bike guys use. is ur grip tape the 3m coarse? i use to have to cut a big piece for the thresholds on the vault doors i put in. we thought it would be smart to put in on my friends hobie cat. good grip but if it catches u when u fall off it gave bad road rash. ax me how i know dat.

TechShizzle Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Mine is supposed to be delivered today by “End of day”, but there is no tracking info other than Order processed: waiting for UPS. This tells me it really didn’t ship out and won’t be left on my doorstep by the UPS Santa Claus. It also shows as coming from Chicago, which it can’t be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably. I’m in Cali about an hour from Jason’s warehouse, so it would be my luck. Unfortunately I’m out of town tomorrow, but if it shows up I’ll be putting some miles on it on Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take the pedals off of the wheel, place them upside down on a wooden block so they are elevated a few inches. Now you will have some space beneath the pedals to wrap the heated material around.
