Anybody know? I see people want it as a basic feature on pedals, but what is the reasoning behind it.

One more dumb question, how do you pronounce Marzocchi?

the pedals are paralelagrams because if the pedal is sticking straight up and down it rolls back wards and prevents you foot from falling of INFRONT of the pedal and getting mad ****ed.
