Pedals for a hybrid

[ScotiaLass]

I'm used to the flat (metal) pedals that I put on my MTB. They have superb grip and I'm used to my feet almost sticking to them when I ride.
The Dawes hybrid has the standard plastic pedals on it and my feet have slipped more than once.
I want to replace them but what with?
I'm not sure MTB pedals would look right on the hybrid - are there any alternatives that give good grip but don't look like they should be used in a muddy forest somewhere?

I'm more one for function over aesthetics so wouldn't be too fussed with MTB pedals on a hybrid (but not BMX ones ) I quite like chromed vintage touring pedals tho, good and grippy, dirt cheap from jumbles and don't tend to have a particular look

Whats looking 'right' got to do with it. The only time you or other people see the pedals is when your not riding it, if your happy with the pedals on your MTB just get the same for your hybrid.

True, I just thought it may look daft or be a 'no-no'

If that's the style you prefer them use them. I have BMX/MTB style pedals and like the look of them on my bikes (especially as there was a choice of colours).

Yes, I can get pretty silver ones to match the bike or polished chrome to match the cranks

I use flatties on all the bikes, either DMR V8,s or these which I slightly prefer. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Wellgo-MG...itchen_Ovens_Hobs_Cookers&hash=item231752d68d

function each and everytime. I have mtb pedals (and toe clips) on my road bike and my off-road touring bike. I also have toe clips on my mtb bike as well.
if you like the ones on your mtb, then use those (new set of course) - otherwise look at MTS MT lite pedals. they have superb grip. There is also a MTS CT Lite hybrid pedal as well...

Listed in the 'Ovens' category, oddly!

DMR V8's or 12's on everything I ride with flats. I like the pedals, that trumps everything else.

Another Wellgo fan here, these are on all my bikes; very grippy and cost £26.49 from ChainReaction.

I use MG1 on my subway, before that on my road bike. Great set of pedals.
