    I’ll look at those. I’m going to put my black chesters back on for now, because pedals aren’t a “need” but want some gray grips to match the tire sidewall. Got a recommendation there?

    Deity Supracush or Lockjaw. I have the Waypoint which is a skinnier version of the Supracush and I'm never changing. They come in a very complimentary grey color to match the sidewalls.

    Im one of those people that finds something they like and obsess over them.

    Deity grips and Bladerunner flat pedals
    CB Mallet-E clipless pedals
    Oneup droppers
    Lezyne bottle cages
    Specialized water bottles

    What @Gunshot-6A said. I’m pretty partial to Ergon grips, but if I might give deity or pnw a run.

    I love the DH grips from Ergon, but their trail/enduro ones just hurt my hands. Never been able to like them, but I really want to.

    Ergon didn’t have a gray I wanted. Sadly. And the yellow ones I have now are ergon and they really haven’t held up...granted I hit a lot of shit on the end...

    Santa Cruz still makes a very similar grip to the waypoint. I think its called the Palmdale?

    I broke the end cap on a set the first day I rolled the Tallboy out of the shop. Set the bike against my truck while I opened up the arms on my rack. Bike fell over in the parking lot with zero miles on it. My pride was destroyed before I’d every clipped in.

    I run the Lockjaw in grey and am still undecided if I like the lockjaw or the knuckleduster better. Both are smaller than the Supercush though.

    I have become a Diety freak. I have the Lockjaw, my son has the knuckleduster and my wife and daughter run the Supercush. I had the knuckleduster on my last bike and loved them though. I run as much of their stuff as I can, but still haven't bit the bullet on the Copperhead stem. Just to simple for me, I want something a bit sexier for the money. Like their cavity, but for a 35mm bar. So it is I9, Renthal, or RaceFace for me. Still trying to decide since I do want to switch from a 50mm length to a 40mm.

    Got a 40mm coming my way now. Kept it simple with a black I9. Kinda like deity is to you, I9 is (semi) local to me.

    The Stamp 2 are pretty good pedals. I have a set on my fatbike. No issues ever and they handle the snowy slipperyness quite well.

    However, I have Deity TMACs on both of my other bikes (Downcountry & Enduro). Honestly, I will never go back to anything else. The best grip I've ever had and the concave is to die for (FYI, I run FiveTen Freerider Pro shoes). Also, they can be completely rebuilt.

    If you're setting a bike for the long haul...I say go all in. I know, it kind of hurts to pay $170 for pedals...I've done it twice. But after that first ride, you'll know it was all worth it. NO RAGRETS!

    If you've never ridden the TMACs and never plan to, the Stamps are a fantastic choice. :thumbsup:
