nice pedal.
malambot yung feel. not as adjustable/customizable as the old elims (P-2001/2 with the different colored cams and all) but still, more customizable/adjustable than other direct drive pedals. and i think it's pretty hard/impossible to have interchangeable cams on a direct drive pedal such as the DD.
to be fair, i've only heard (no first hand hands-on experience on tinkering) about the adjustability of other direct drive pedals so i don't think i'm the most reliable one to ask. nakatry lang ako ng axis once or twice sa mga music shops. as for the trick, hindi ko pa natry.
all i can say is, if you want a super flexible direct drive pedal, then you might want to look at the DD. that's what blew my mind with this pedal. uber-adjustable since hindi naman lahat ng paa ng mga drummers ay magkakapareho. it's built like a tank. may lock pa for the spring tension so it would always stay the same as how you set it (was a problem for me with my old pedal).
though i think using "special NINJA bearings" is a bit of an overkill. i don't think it would make a difference on such a nanoscale like that (the NINJA bearings are supposed to be nano-micro-polished or something like that). and the price is sorta steep. plus, the "drum key/allen wrench" combo that came with it sucks. the drum key is ok pero yung allen wrench nakalbo na agad hindi na masyado kumakagat. though may kasama naman na separate allen wrenches (3 pieces diff sizes) so ok lang. and like intake said, hindi nga talaga siya "longboard" like axis or trick since may hinge pa rin sa dulo. not a traditional longboard pedal as we know it.
overall i think this is a great pedal. medyo mahal lang (mejo nagbawas ako ng gamit dahil sa GAS) and some issues with the drum key. but if you're a stickler for adjustability and want a pedal to suit YOU (not the other way around), check the DD out.
ayan, 98 cents na lang barya ko.
