Positive

Noteworthy updates make the ride smoother and a little more energetic than v41 while keeping the feel that made it popular. It's good value, durable and comfortable for easy daily training, but unlikely to win new fans: less cushioned than rivals, heavy for a lowish stack, and not great for faster runs.

What are the most common complaints about Nike Pegasus 42?

The complaints reviewers mention most: heavy (1 review). For example: Not disappointing only because he expected nothing special, sad for such a historic line. It has secure lockdown, excellent durability and reliable grip, but at 300 g it's one of the heaviest daily trainers, the foam lacks responsiveness, propulsion is minimal, and it's not versatile. Nike needs more meaningful updates.
