Are these just for downhill or can you ride them on all sorts of trails, Example riding up hill comfortably and smooth? THanks

Hi Chad, I use them when I drive my scooter. It's a 300 cc scooter. No intense riding. They take a while to get use to. Give it a 7 out of 10 for comfort. Smooth yes.

They are good everywhere. you don't realize how much abuse your shins take until you wear these on a few rides and see how marked up they are.Worth wearing for sure.

I do believe the movements with your legs is still the same. Make sure there not to big, they may dig into the top of your shoe / foot.

I used them hiking on icy trails in Craftsbury Vermont, but trails were on fairly level ground, not mountainous. They worked well.

I have not used them for any serious mountain biking, just across fields and gravel roads, but I think they would be OK. Be aware that these are easier to release than standard SPDs, and that does increase the likelihood of an unintentional pedal release.

They are round, grip great. Amazing pedal, love them. I used clipless for years but feel I get comparable grip with obstacles / downhill rides with these pedals. Just be careful, I've lost a hunk or two or flesh due to my foot coming off the pedal mainly with uphill obstacles and my sloppiness.

They roll smoother for sure, I like them for mostly street riding, with ample pressure they're great, no noticeable increase in rolling resistance, noticeably softer ride.

I also swapped out a pair of Kenda 26 X 2.1 Knobby Tires that came with the Mountain bike (Diamondback Response) with these. No problems.Since I'm mainly doing asphalt or hard road riding, it's good to get some street tires. You can really feel the difference.

Really good. If you're looking for speed or going down hills, I recommend changing them.

For the most part. If going downhill at high speed, there is a delay in stopping. Normal, everyday stopping and slopped downhill works fine .

These wheels suck. They are extremely slow. If you are into downhill riding these are not the wheel for you.

Honestly I mean I guess it would depend what you were doing in them. I run in them and love them and they have awesome sound. Now would I use them during my martial arts and stuff? Not likely but if you wanna run I don't think I have ever had a pair of s11's fall off so I would recommend and I'm not running usually on just flat ground it could be any terrain so I hope that helps ya out.

They fit nicely on my fuji cross pro but I never take them off road. I wouldn't trust them. They seem fragile. I have beefier wheels for when I'm needing to go off-roading. I do use them for commuting. My route is not the smoothest ride... curbs, railroad tracks, etc and they've held up great for 2 years now. GL

Yes, they can be installed on mountain bikes. I think it'll be easier for them to be installed on mountain bikes compared to road bikes.

I can power up a hill of about 5% grade easier than most people on mountain bikes, I pass them. unless you are hitting huge hills, which is not what this bike is intended for, it is great all around town, up and down.

Not noisy, but you will feel them. They deliver great traction offroad, but onroad you will feel a bit of drag since they're wide. For primarily onroad use with a bit of offroad, you might like Schwalbe Racing Ralphs a bit better. A touch narrower and smoother onroad but competent offroad as well.

Sorry, don't know the answer to that. We bought them for our son and his fiancee for riding ATV's and UTV"s out in the desert and in the hills. They love them for that. Sorry I can't help.

the single speed is quite easy to pedal on flat land, however small hills are quite a challenge. I have not tried the 3 speed so I can't say how that performs on hills.

It is a very nice trail bike but not for professional purpose. Don't push so hard. It goes ok for jumps and rocks as well but again, not in professional use. I am very satisfied that effect.
