The Strike Double Bass Pedal : Great pedals for starting out with direct drive

I bought these pedals solely for the purpose of seeing if I like the direct drive feel, as up to this point I had only used chain-driven pedals and didn't want to pull the trigger immediately on a more expensive set of pedals. This is a very budget-friendly set of direct drive pedals and they do the job just fine. The adjustability of the cam is a little bit jumpy and not precision-adjustable, but they cannot be beaten for the price!

The pedals are put together very sturdily, I play very hard and they handle all of the abuse without any problems. Now that I have been using them for some time and have become adjusted to the feel of a direct drive system, I'll soon be upgrading to a pair of Trick Dominators. But I'll still hold on to these as a backup, a quality piece of gear!
