Amazing set of pedals that are extremely (and easily) adjustable and dependable. I have played several different double bass pedals and these are honestly the first I've had that I truly can't find a complaint about. They're truly a work of art. I have played these for a few years. Always at home in a smoke free, clean basement. They will come with everything pictured. The rod has marks from the set screws, but they are purely cosmetic and do not have an impact on their adjustment or ability to lock in the distance you need. If you would like any additional pictures or information, please let me know and I will be happy to send them ASAP.

From the manufacturer:
Machined from solid aluminum, the DW MCD Machined Chain Drive double bass drum pedal offers you the smooth and precise action of a fully adjustable sprocket-less cam, which lets you quickly shift between popular chain-drive cam settings. Features such as a perforated footboard with contoured heel plate, interlocking Delta hinge, and Tri-Pivot Swivel Toe -Clamp give the MCD the feel of a well-tuned race car. The V.E.R.T. Vertical Sliding Spring Adjustment and customizable control beater, which offer adjustable weight/impact, and more, all serve to make this one of DW's finest double bass drum pedals.
