FAQ - Clip-In Pedals

All Crankbrothers clip-in pedal systems contain two pedals (one left pedal, one right pedal), one pair of cleats with mounting hardware, and one Crankbrothers icon sticker.

Most Crankbrothers clip-in pedals come with our 6-degree float, Standard Release cleats. Our Candy 1, Eggbeater 1, and Double Shot 1 pedals come with our Easy Release cleats instead, with a smaller release angle required to unclip but still featuring 6 degrees of float.

Although closely related, float and release angle refer to separate characteristics of our cleats. "Float" is what we call the amount of rotational free play while clipped-in, whereas "Release Angle" refers to the angle of rotation of the cleat required to completely exit from the pedal, ie "unclip".

All standard bicycle pedal spindles are threaded specifically for either the left or right side of your bike, ours included - it's important to double check you're installing the correct pedal to the matching crank arm to avoid damage. A close inspection of the flange of the pedal spindle will indicate either Left side (with a grooved flange) or Right side (with a flat flange).

You'll need an 8mm hex wrench and bike grease for proper installation of your pedals - watch our tutorial here!

Maintenance schedules can vary greatly depending on riding conditions and mileage, but as a general rule of thumb, we recommend a seasonal re-grease of the internal components to keep things running smoothly. We also offer refresh kits with new bearings, seals, and hardware when a full overhaul is desired. Pro tip: Avoid using a pressure washer at close distances to clean your pedals, as water could get past the external seals and displace the grease your pedals need to spin freely.

No - SPD cleats won't work with our pedals.

Although we always recommend using Crankbrothers shoes featuring MATCH Technology for an optimized setup right out of the box, any MTB or Gravel shoes which feature a recessed two-hole cleat mounting box are compatible with our pedal system. With third-party footwear, it may be necessary to use additional shims or traction pads to fine-tune the shoe-to-pedal interface [pro tip: use our Cleat Tool to find your ideal shim setup]. In addition, you can even adapt a three-hole road shoe to be compatible with our Eggbeater or Candy pedals with the use of our adapter kit.

"These are great pedals. Fairly light and very well constructed. A nice platform to push against. They shed mud very well like the original eggbeater."

My go to gravel pedal.

"My go to gravel pedal. Perfect fit and platform for long days in the saddle. Minimalist design provides great benefits while not penalizing for weight or bulk. Definitely a win-win, especially when paired with som CB shoes. Oh yeah!"

"I have really enjoyed the Mallet trail pedals. I thought they were going to feel a bit small compared to the enduro, but to my surprise they do not. Plenty of support in a smaller and lighter package. I would definitely recommend you giving them a try."

"absolutely love these on my Nimble 9. sleek and light, enough platform to feel stable through the chunkiest and slabbiest terrain, and they look nice to boot."

andrew r. (5/5)

Took a bit to get

"Took a bit to get the cleat to platform adjusted but overall solid. Clipping in is simple, I went with the easy out to have better bail response. The grip is dialed after about 3-4 rides to find the right height on the spikes."

Benni H. (5/5)

I've been riding CB pedals

"I've been riding CB pedals since they were introduced. Rode Onzas before that. I LOVE a small, reliable, and light pedal and these things just work. I still have my original pair, as well as 4 other sets on my dirt and gravel bikes."
