These COMPLETE KNOCKOFF mountain bike pedals have me heated!

Today, we examine a complete copy of the Raceface Chester pedals by a company called "Fooker". This is an appropriate name for a company that hired sponsored ads on Amazon to appear above Raceface's original pedal. I guess spending money on engineers and R&D isn't as effective as cheating.
In any case, they made a copy of a good pedal and did a good job of it. If you bought the Fookers, you made a smart decision and probably bought a decent pedal. I'm just frustrated with the blatant reverse engineering.

Saw those fookers pedals on amazon at a price of $30.99, also found the race face Chester's on sale at a price of $40.99 originally 49.99, you said the cookers sucked, I think you making that video is cool, and your findings show your opinion, I think sometimes customer pays more for a name brand,and at the end the customer will make a decision which brand to choose from and what price to pay for, for an item that could perform equally or possibly better, I do not own neither brand,but if I choose buy some pedals I will look at customer reviews on both items to compare, and if reviews are rated even, I would not mind buying the fookers or any other god given brand,by the way good job on those videos they are entertaining and informative 👍

You should have put the name "Fooker" in the title, so that when people are shopping and looking for reviews this will come up on the search.

I've actually been running a single pair of fooker pedals for 4 years now. I've ridden all over western North Carolina including Beech mountain, the Riveter, Dupont, Pisgah, Bent creek, and everywhere else you can think of. They do loosen up a bit more than the Chester's but never seem to move more than 2-3/10 of an inch. They've held up really well considering the abuse they've gone through. The pins do wear out faster and the spindle has that little bit of play I mentioned, but other than that they're solid. If it's your only choice, its not a bad buy. But otherwise, just get the Chester's. They're only $20 more and the spindle construction is far better in terms of reliability. and yes my name is basically the same as the fooker pedals, I just thought it was funny.

i had been running race face on my hardtail but wanted to see for myself if they were worth the extra 20 dollars, so I bought a pair of fooker pedals, and because I go through a set of pedals every 3 months or so. I now use fooker because its cheaper, and I haven't noticed a significant difference in how they feel. however, I would not recommend going for a lower quality product if your safety depends on it for example, if you are going to ride whistler or something of that nature.

Short-term it's great to save money on some surprisingly half-decent knock off pedals and have a laugh over the name, but long term theres a team of qualified engineers, designers, marketers and testers at that rely on your consumer revenue for their jobs. Manufacturing has been outsourced offshore for 30 years and is never coming back. Keep buying into this trend and engineering, design, marketing, etc will go offshore too.

What probably happened is that the company that raceface contracted with to do their molding work, probably made a run for fooker. It is common in moldings and forgings for one manufacturer making moldings for multiple companies, who then finish the item to meet their specs and price points.

I had a set of FOOKERS come apart while riding!.. I was an idiot for buying them.. LUCKILY I WAS NOT HURT! The fooker hardware backed off while pedaling and the pedal was just about to fall off. I put the bike in the car and pulling it out the pedal fell to the ground.. AVOID THE FOOKERS, I have to say it .. YOU MIGHT GET FOOKED

Chances are these are made in the same factory, on the same machines and by the same people where the raceface pedals are made.

Daniel M Måned siden

It’s hard to hate these pedals. They come in almost 20 different colors and from what Seth is saying they are practically identical to the RaceFace Chesters. What sucks is that the REASON they are so cheap is because they spent no money on marketing or R &D. They STOLE a finished intellectual property and waited for people to look for the Chesters. I know it’s like $15, but Seth is right… If you can afford it, please buy the namebrand and support mountain biking manufacturers 🤙

David Cote 2 måneder siden

They are probably made by the same company that produces the RaceFace Chesters... They just sell them under another name, not that RaceFace knows about it, or maybe they do, If they don't have exclusive pattern ownership with the company in China making them, then the Chinese company can do whatever they want... one of the downsides to producing products in China...almost exclusively, they have control of the patent and can do whatever they want with it. Hey, if you want dirt cheap labor, you have to give up something. *** Look at TV streaming boxes, you have the same box under many names. China doesn't care about product manufacturer name recognition, they just care about the $$'s spent on a product. "Product manufacturer name recognition" went the way of the Dodo Bird.

Pretty common for mold shops in China to sell molds after the company is finished with them. Happens in the footwear industry all the time. In a lot of cases the factory actually owns the mold. All this proves is that race face is selling the product a huge margins and could still make profit if they cut the cost in half.

It's called competition. If cycling companies want to be competitive they should lower their prices. Cycling gear is outrageously expensive. Why would I buy something that is twice the price if the quality is essentially the same?
