OneUp Comp Platform Pedal

While aluminum pedals are generally stiffer and more resistant to rock strikes, these nylon composite pedals are surprisingly robust and often slide over obstacles rather than grabbing them. They are an excellent choice for riders who want a lightweight, impact-resistant pedal without the higher cost of alloy.

Yes, the seven steel pins per side are rear-loading, which makes them easy to remove or replace if they get damaged on the trail. Because they load from the back, you won't have to worry about the pin heads getting smashed and stuck in the pedal body after a hard impact.

This platform size is designed to balance stability with ground clearance, making it ideal for most trail riders. If you have very large feet—typically size US 12 or larger—you might prefer a pedal with a wider footprint, but for the average rider, this size offers a secure and planted feel.

The chamfered edge is designed to deflect rocks and roots rather than catching on them. By thinning out the profile at the front, the pedal is less likely to cause a pedal strike, helping you maintain momentum through technical, rocky sections of the trail.

The DU bushing and cartridge bearing combination is designed for longevity and smooth rotation. While no pedal is completely immune to mud and water, this system is well-sealed and easy to service, ensuring the pedals continue to spin smoothly even after riding in wet or gritty environments.
