Are they quiet? Do they stay quiet after using them for a while, even if you stand on them and mount/ dismount with your full weight on one pedal?

I'm 230lbs and I've never heard a squeak out of them. I do long distance and light trail riding.

i put about 1500 miles on them so far with no problems. i weigh 250 lbs, so they get a work out.

Yes, they are quiet after a year. Of course, you can put all your weight on them.. I am 205 lbs. They are the best platform pedals on the market. I've put about 4500 miles on the set that I have now. If you don't require clipped pedals for competition or severe riding, platform pedals are the way to go. Metal pedals are much better than plastic and the Bigfoot pin pattern is the best.

As a Ninjitsu Master, being quiet is high priority. Each pedal can handle 250 lbs but I would not advise 2 story jumps.

surprisingly...no they don't I used these for a few years riding around pothole ridden brooklyn streets on my then fixie commuter bike. You don't notice them rattle at all. Just make sure you install them as directed by the instructions/youtube video. I adjusted my installation to be fairly close to my tires, but still enough clearance to prevent rubbing.

I take them off, as my bike has rubber valve stems and they would bend. Besides, there is one more place to lerak if you leave them on. They work well, but I definitely woould remove them on a bike...

I do have these on my top of case exhaust. They do make noise at a higher rpm (Not a bother.) I control this with a fan controller. When I need them at higher speed, they are turned up. I turn them down and they are quiet. I have had them for 2 years now and they still work well.

Do you have them installed with the arrow pointing in the right direction? Do you have them tightened sufficiently? Mine are silent at all speeds.

They are very quiet, turbine sy=tyle impellers and a well designed housing. vertical /horizontal mounting options, etc.... I am running four of them, and the "whistle" and "air noise" is louder than units themselves..... Good stuff.. the person who answered with a #7, must have a poor mount or something, they are very quit.Frantic1

Well, mine don't work at all now. They broke after only 4 months; so, it's hard to say for sure, but I never used them while driving. The sound quality did get a little choppy when I started moving quickly on my bike, though.

I rode my bike with these for about 3 weeks before they completely failed. I ride ~200 miles / week. Amazon wouldn't take them back after receiving them (they were clean, just broken), they also didn't return them. I know this question is a few years old, just providing more info for folks looking to buy.

No, it's not a true isolation. Each input is separate and this power supply is reliable and a step up from a one-spot or similar daisy chain. It does reduce noise, but you will still have some. However, no matter what you do, with some pedals you will continue to have noise.

Sorry wrong bearings. I cleaned and lubed these for lazy susans and they are fairly quiet.

I have them mounted in the cockpit of my sailboat . . . they play & sound well . . . consistent with their size , they don't have a heavy mid or low response . . . BUT , they do NOT "break up" when driven hard . . .

They are great for riding a "mountain bike" on pavement. Nice and smooth and quiet. They are very light and thin though, so off road use should be limited to well groomed trails. Rocks, thorns, or any other sharp terrain would be a killer.

No noise. Rides very well and no bumps providing you have the bike secured as designed. I love mine!

I believe they stay on the ground. According to their website and video, it allows for balance control. They have a website for more information. www.eztrainingwheels.com PS. I have no affiliation with them. Just doing research and I'm looking to purchase some in the near future.

yes they shut off when not moving. This product is amazing for the price...have not had to use the shock part, still just vibrate.

Not terribly sure, I mounted them on my bike without weighing them. I'd say they're not overly heavy. They do ride well, although they do make a sound on smooth pavement.

I play most of my music on the high side (partially deaf) but never experienced any vibration. Did you try adjusting how you wear them? I noticed more bass when I love them a little lower. Good luck. I really like mine great for walking and biking so I can still hear traffic etc. I think if you somehow got a bummer pair the company will replace or reimburse.
