About this deal

The Oneup Components Aluminum Pedal is a lightweight and durable platform pedal designed for mountain biking. It features a slim profile and a concave platform that provides superior grip and control. At 113mm by 103mm, the broad platform measures up favourably against the regular Crank Brothers Stamp. Effectively you get more real estate on which to plant your foot, without adding to the overall width – so they’re less likely to catch on trailside debris, or indeed the ground when cranked over. This is far from the thinnest platform in our review, but it is respectable and features a convex shape.

Although this didn’t reduce grip, it did impact stability and meant accurate foot placement was important for optimum support. I was able to reposition my feet on the platforms, which was helpful.DUE TO THE CURRENT HIGH DEMAND, DELIVERY TIME FOR BIKES IS 7-10 DAYS. ALL PARTS AND ACCESSORIES ARE STILL 1-2 DAYS. freestyIAM: Because Shimano produces all of their own products there is no Middle man. They sell their merchandise directly to retailers so the savings gets passed onto everyone. And when your SPD design hasnt changed in years, casting some different alloy frames to go around the retention system is fooking cheap. Immediately upon opening the box I was impressed with just how thin the One Up flat pedals are. They are by far the thinnest pedals I have ever put my hands on. The pins are also significantly thinner in diameter than most other pedals– something I was initially very excited about. Getting them on the bike was a breeze with the left and right graphics.

An inexpensive pedal that works great as a commuter, but less suitable as a true mountain bike pedal Even though the tall pins focus pressure into your shoe’s sole, it’s still possible to sense the axle housing through your feet. A budget oriented pedal that offers adequate grip and a midsize platform but may be less apealing compared to established brands These pedals are designed to have quite aggressive pins for maximum grip. Our pedal pin & washer kit comes with 0.5mm washers, to reduce them slightly.

The bearing is located in this end of the pedal body. The pedals are also labeled left and right. This is a nice touch that can't be overlooked. For the ultimate flat pedal torture test, I grabbed my hardtail and headed out to Whistler to shred some gnarly bike park. There was no foot pedal separation the entire first half of the day. The pedals inspired confidence through the beer can size braking bumps and provided a great transfer of power out of corners. I found myself sitting down briefly to adjust my foot on some of the rougher sections, with how soft my shoes are the pins felt glued to the bottom. The OneUp Aluminum Pedals have a high-quality build and finish. The sleek and attractive appearance is paired with some critical details that OneUp nailed. For example, the pins load with a slightly larger three-millimeter allen key, making them harder to strip. It is the details that count. OneUp also includes four replacement pins with the pedals, and pin and bearing rebuild kits are reasonably priced and readily available. Credit is provided by a panel of lenders with whom we have a commercial relationship (so we cannot provide independent advice). vernonfelton My armchair assessment is that when you ride flats, tossing a bike to escape situations is easier to do, versus clipless, where tossing the bike happens less frequently because your meat is probably still attached. That instinct for self-preservation probably saves a lot of pedal abuse. On clipless, a lot of stress is focused directly over the axle on a virtually indestructible cleat, with support coming from the sole if the shoe. On flats, it would seem the bigger the pedal platform, the more leverage the weight of the bike and/or rider has to bend, break and grind up the internals, axles and pedal bodies.Racing Rumours 2024 Part 1: Danny Hart Off Cube, Vali to YT, the End of GT Factory Racing, Kintner Off Norco, & More Designed with a subtle convex profile to provide you with more grip thanks to the pedal sitting in the natural arch of your foot. The thin leading edge chamfered design gives you maximum clearance to reduce pedal strikes and deflect off trail obstacles. The OneUp Aluminum did not lose many points in this metric because a spacer kit is readily available. This allows you to shorten the pins by adding a washer on the loading side of the pedal. If mobility is important, you can shorten some or all pins. These spacers can also be used to simulate concavity on the pedal by shortening the pins in the middle and keeping the front and rear pins long.

I bought a set of Crankbrothers Stamp pedals at the start of this season to experiment with platform pedals, after years of riding with SPD clips (and anxiety over low-speed stall-falls). After several months of anxiety-free riding, I'm pretty much sold on platforms.The platform is big at 115x110 without being too big as it extends the pedaling surface close to the crank where the axle meets it. 10 long, removable pins are placed at the outer edges and on the middle of the pedal. Thanks to the average-sized platform, once my feet had twisted they overlapped the sides of the platform, unsupported by the pedals.
