Ability & Experience
Your riding ability and experience level will also affect your choice when looking for a new flat pedal.
Grippier pedals, with aggressive pins and deeper concavity, may appeal more to advanced riders who want that locked-in feel. New riders may prefer the Chester pedal. The composite material keeps the price down while still being durable and comfortable. And when the inevitable shin strike occurs, the grub screw pin on Chester will be a lot more forgiving.
