Collection: Pedals

If you are a flat pedal rider, you have most likely found yourself in this pickle: do you spend the extra cash for alloy pedals or go with the cheaper composite versions? We offer both for a reason, the no feature missed Sage Alloy Pedal alongside the durable and affordable Vortex Composite Pedal. First, let's look at the details and what you want in a flat mountain bike pedal. Both of our pedals feature a symmetrical body design with real concave. This means the pedal body is the same distance from the spindle on the leading and trailing edges, giving you an even balance over the spindle. Real concave means the center spindle of the pedal is thinner than the leading and trailing edges, so your foot and the sole of your shoe "sink" or "sit" into the pedal. Having ridden and tested just about every pedal out there, we found these two top features made for a good flat pedal.

Next, we look at how thin the pedal is, as creating a concave pedal while also keeping it as thin as possible is a precise balance. Our Sage Alloy pedal has a leading edge thickness of 15.5mm and a platform size of 110 x 110mm with 5.5mm tall pins. The Vortex Composite pedal is 14.5mm and has a platform size of 105mm x 105mm with 4.5mm tall pins.

We also offer full rebuild kits for both our Sage and Vortex pedals along with Pin kits to keep your pedals feeling fresh. The Vortex pins are 1mm longer than the stock pins, so you can extend your pin length if you want. Both Vortex and Sage pin kits come with a 1mm washer so you can also decrease the pin height if that is something you prefer.
