Highlights

Custom chromoly spindle
Slim 25mm profile
Removable steel pins
Knurled top surface

Description

Eclat's problem with thin pedals was the spindle: keep the profile low and you usually give up axle strength. Rather than take an off the shelf spindle, they developed their own, using a smaller caged bearing and staying thicker close to the crank arm where the strength is needed most.

The result is a super low profile pedal, 25mm at its highest point, on a chromoly 9/16" spindle built to take the force of today's riding. The injection moulded nylon and fibreglass body has a knurled top surface, and the removable steel pins let you set the grip you want.

Features

Custom chromoly spindle. Eclat built their own axle instead of using an off the shelf one, keeping it thick near the crank arm where the load is highest.
Slim 25mm profile. The body sits just 25mm at its highest point, so there is less pedal hanging out to catch on coping and ledges.
Removable steel pins. Swap worn pins rather than binning the pedal, and set the grip level that suits your shoes.
Knurled top surface. Texture moulded into the body backs up the pins, so your foot stays put when things get wet.
9/16in thread, 389g a pair. Standard 9/16" thread suits three piece cranks, and loose ball bearings are simple to service at home.
