The Moto Urban Pedals are inspired by this model in that the surface of the pedals themselves is made up of a high quality gripe tape pad. These surfaces are also common to skateboard decks, which allow greater comfort and response when in contact with your feet. Moreover, the Moto Urban Pedals are said to [increase safety while riding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyclist-safety1).
