SDG Components is best known for the line of saddles and dropper posts, but their lineup also includes grips. Last year they added a platform pedal to the collection – the Comp Pedal. Made from a composite material for the body, and a cromoly spindle, the profile has a classic flat BMX style shape as […]
SDG Tellis Dropper Lever + 170mm Adjustable Seat Post Long Term Review
