What this pedal is designed for
A clip-in mountain bike pedal built for:
- Trail / XC / enduro riding
- Efficient pedalling + control over rough terrain
- Easy entry/exit with adjustable release angles
Key components explained
Spindle: forged chromoly steel
- The axle that screws into your crank
-
Chromoly = strong + impact resistant
Built to survive rough riding and repeated hits
Body: one-piece composite
- Main pedal platform housing
- Composite = lightweight plastic/nylon blend
Reduces weight and improves impact resistance without going full metal
Wings: stamped steel
- The “claw” mechanism that holds your cleat in
- Steel = durable engagement system
Keeps clipping in solid even in mud and abuse
Spring: 300-series stainless steel
- Controls clip-in tension and release feel
- Stainless = corrosion resistant
Reliable release over time, even in wet conditions
Bearings system (this is the quality part)
-
Inner bearing: Igus® LL-glide
- Low-friction bushing system
- Very good at handling dirt and grit
-
Outer bearing: Enduro cartridge bearing
- Sealed precision bearing
- Smooth rotation + long life
This combo is typical of mid-to-high performance MTB pedals
Release angle: 15° / 20°
- How far you rotate your heel to unclip
- 15° = quicker release
- 20° = more secure feel before unclipping
Adjustable feel depending on rider preference
Weight: 262g per pair
- Very light for clipless MTB pedals
Good for XC and all-day riding efficiency
What it feels like to ride
- Quick, confident clip-in engagement
- Secure locked-in pedalling on rough terrain
- Smooth rotation with low maintenance bearings
- Adjustable “pop-out” feel depending on setup
Who this suits
- XC and trail riders
- Riders who want lightweight clipless efficiency
- People upgrading from basic SPD pedals
- Riders who want reliable release without being too loose
Trade-offs
- Less platform support than big enduro pedals
- Not ideal for aggressive downhill riding
- Composite body is lighter but less “tank-like” than full alloy pedals
Bottom line
This is a lightweight, durable clipless MTB pedal with a well-balanced bearing system and adjustable release feel. It’s built for efficiency and control rather than pure downhill abuse.
