Default Diy bmx pedals

ok so i saw on some sites they are selling BMX style pedals to put on your bike. looked cool so a buddy gave me a set of old DK Iron cross pedals off his BMX bike and i figured i could make my own and save 90 bucks. i put some pictures up on the process.
First i took the spindle out of the pedals and cut off the threds from the spindle, then i took the old stock HD pegs and cut the adapter off and welded that to the spindle of the pedal. then i put the pedal back on the spindle and its ready to be mounted. just waiting for the paint to dry. Very easy process and cheap. you can buy these pedal for around 20 bucks if you like it. i know allot arnt fans. Just figured id share.

Nice to see people working with what they got. Just too big and bulky for my taste then again I hate floor boards. Nice work though.
