Can you link to the ones you have? Kinan?
It was so stupid that TraceCelo didnt try the oniiris with original shimano yellow cleats. The pedals are basicly useless once you are trough the cleats they provide with the pedals..

These are the ones I'm using. Pretty sure these are rebranded Onirii pedals.

Recently I found these Rockbros pedals with titanium spindle. Roughly 51 USD with coins and the current BF sale. Claimed weight is 180 g for both pedals, so very keen to try these out. I am happy with my current LFK pedals, but I am always trying to push the weight down as much as I can (not on myself tho lol).

They are probably from the same factory as the Kinan ones, they look the same to me.

Do these work with shimano cleats? I read that some of the onirii pedals will not work with non-onirii cleats without lateral play, and onirii doesn't sell their own cleats iirc  :(

I'm a heavy rider (104kg with shoes, helmet, etc) and I'm 4 months (and around 1000km) onto my onirii pedals (PD-06 with extended Ti axle) with zero problems.

I'm using it with the original shimano cleats that came with my PD-R540. I had to replace the shimano pedals after about 2300km, because it developed some play (it was getting worse after each ride).

Quick update: I have to say I am quite impressed by these. 177g weighted. They are not clogged up with thick grease as the other ones, they spin very freely. Easy to setup. Haven’t tried with OG Shimano cleats, but the provided cleats work very well, they clip easily. Let’s see how they are long term. Will report back :D

Know someone who ride this ONIRII https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005006979501199.html

Have 4-5 in our bunch. After year of abuse no problems for everyone, slightly more body wear compared to shimano, but still working as day one. On photos my pair with extended spindle

Is the q-factor on Onirii extended axle the same as Shimano +4mm axles or is it shorter?

These ones are fine - I have 1431 miles (2300 km) on them.  The only issue is when I tried to take the spindle off of the right pedal body, it was on very very very tight.  I was unsuccessful, so I'll have to go to more extreme measures when I need to service.  So that's a bummer.
