Why would you sandblast it? I'd say the risk of damaging the welds is too high, I've seen a couple frames break after sandblasting.

Thanks guys! Rode it today for some time to get to know how the slack works. Found out that the slack is the biggest when you pedal down, so your front foot is at the bottom and then crank back up again.

How does the coaster feel?

Feels like it engages better/more "solid" than a KHE clone. It clicks kinda like a cassette but not as often and waaay more silent. Really like it! The only thing I don't like are the different flange sizes.

Nobody posted in this thread for over a month and what does that have to do with the rest of the thread?

The difference is that BSD tires don't wear out as fast and they don't get punctures as easy from my experience.

What's so special about these pedals and why don't they have pins?
