Colorado CJ Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I have an ACM2, I also have size 12 feet. I am wondering if the MSuper V3 pedals are larger than the ACM2 pedals. Its an easy swap and if they are larger, I'd really like to install them on my ACM. My feet stick over 4" on my ACM pedals. Does anyone have the measurements of the MSuper V3 pedal? Thanks.

Smoother Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 If you've got size 12 feet you won't find any pedals from any brand that will satisfy your needs. My feet aren't that big but I'm tired of the front of the pedal falling right across the balls of my feet. I've rolled right off the front of them many times when something like a pothole has momentarily stopped the wheel in its tracks. So I'm building pedal extensions with some 6.5mm aluminum diamond plate I've been carting around for 4 years, looking for a project to use it on. (funny, I'm typing this as @steve454 posted the previous post.) The screws arrive tomorrow or Thursday so I'll know more then. I've only cut one so far, as it took forever, and I want to check it out before committing to cutting the other one. I traced around my riding boots and man! that sucker is large. It's like a Hummer beside a Mini. It weighs 1lb 6oz. If it works, I'll turn the toes up to create a toe wedge effect for more transfer of power when needed.

Thats why i prefer the Acm pedals everytime over the Msuper pedals! Had this decision to make on my Monster! ACM definitely better, because wider....

I love them on my Monster. This is subjective so you can't take my or @KingSong69's opinion as fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is subjective so you can't take my or @KingSong69's opinion as fact. Opinion how the pedals “feel” is always subjective, sure. I think the slightly diagonal anti symmetrical shape perhaps makes the MSuper pedals look bigger as they in reality are ( again, opionion ;-) ) But it is a fact that Msuper/ACM pedals while they have about the same lenght, the ACM pedals are a bit wider, about 1 cm. Msuper pedal layed over a installed ACM pedal: So the best would be to test both versions and then decide which feel better :-) If anyone btw is looking for some nearly new Msuper pedals, only used about 50km ....i can sell a pair :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yourtoys7 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Looks like acm pedals wide but slightly shorter, I personally would take any of them, but 1 thing I do like is sandpaper texture of acm, I think they provide better grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbx Nicolas Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 However Msuper3 pedals prove to be more resistant than the acm pedals which crack and break easily in harch conditions. The sharp angle on the ACM/Tesla pedal meshs is a major flaw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoother Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 That doesn't look very strong. What are the black marks for? Are these the ribs you feel break over time? In the first photo, one rib looks already to have separated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbx Nicolas Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The marks are for the craks one could break at any moment... One crack cannot be seen from this point of view there was a total of 6 cracks with both pedals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbx Nicolas Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Here are two examples of cracked ACM pedals, the first one was very badly cracked, te second more slightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoother Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Must be designed by the same company that designed previous King Song axles. I like a crack now and then, but mostly in association with snap, and pop, as in snap crackle and pop. Love a bowel of Kellogs Rice Krispies.

kasenutty Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I smoked some crack back in the 90's. But as SuperHans says, "It's very moorish" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you tell us how much the rider weighs and what types of riding he / she does (eg. off-roading, dropping off curbs, etc)? I wonder if Gotway has improved the pedals on newer models like the Telsa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbx Nicolas Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The first pedal with one crack was mine, following a crash into a block of concrete coming out of the sidewalk, which made me fall at low speed (~15km/h. I weight 60kg. The ones badly cracked with marks were on a ACM with a heavy rider (+100kg), he likes to ride fast but only rides in urban areas. The last unopened pedals are the ones I got with my second hand MS3 in Taiwan, I don't really know what happened, there used to be 70-80kg riders on it riding fast 35-40km/h.
