When Speedplay introduced their Drillium pedals way back when, they were considered a relatively light and svelte for the flat pedal market, but that was a decade ago and pedals have grown thinner and lighter in the interim. I've been waiting for Speedplay to bring some of the burl and innovative features of the Drillium to something lighter and a lot less chunky. Enter the Brass Knuckles.

So they took everything good about the Drillium and binned it, if they shaved the outer leading edges off and made the Drillium a tiny bit thinner they'd be one of the best pedals out there.
Like every other pedal with a bulge at the axle these will suck for feel and require longer pins that will at some point try to rip holes in you.

$175 US, that seems steep.
