After 50 pounds, 2k miles, and a countless smiles it’s time to upgrade from my Orbea Occam.

It’s been great but looking forward to what’s in the mail!

Anyone else looking forward to an upgrade?

The blue Chester’s are actually pictured here! They are great pedals, plenty of grip all the way until I replaced them with the atlas set.

Ended up replacing them because after so many pedal strikes I was missing a good amount of screws and plastic on them!

The atlas pedals are great with the angled screws, but the chesters might have them beat with all out grip.

Oh yeah that’s gotta be a huge upgrade! A good pair of shoes like five tens to with them and you’ll have grip for days!
