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.

Reviews

Quality and dependability. I use

"Quality and dependability. I use these pedals on my road bike replacing an original set of candy pedals. They have proven to be extremely reliable both on pavement as well as gravel. Definitely suggest these pedals to anyone who rides."

— Billy S. (5/5)

these were my first pair

"these were my first pair of clip ins. They can be somewhat hard to engage, but are easy to get out of. I like the better power transfer and balance with these. good quality for the price."

I have used Candy pedals

"I have used Candy pedals for several years and their function and serviceability is excellent. I added these specifically for the colorway to match my gravel bike."

— Joe E. (5/5)

They work perfectly. Thanks. Tip

"They work perfectly. Thanks. Tip to riders. Rotate your ankles and use the calves when hill climbing, bringing them into use. More power."

— Derek M. (5/5)

I bash less rocks!

"The form factor is smaller than flat pedals or the more DH oriented Mellet pedals meaning that I bash my pedals on far less rocks when out riding single track. They work great, look great, and have been a pedal I’m pushing my friends to get."

— Joseph M. (5/5)

I first started using Egg

"I first started using Egg Beaters 15 years ago for a cyclocross bike, then when to the Candy Pedals that I rode across the US with. Last year a I built hardtail and put bought and installed a Double Shot 2. and they worked perfectly for my needs, having a flat and clip in option for single track bikepacking. I just bought a pair of Candy 2 to replace my original Candy 2 with that had more than 25,000 miles. These new Candy 2 pedals work great. They are made with the highest quality, durable, weather/mud resistant. I would highly recommend these Candy 2 for road/gravel riding."

— Tom S. (5/5)

— Brady H. (5/5)

Quality is of very high

"Quality is of very high standards. Still getting used to clipping in versus other brand. Transfer of power is terrific. Cleats moving on the shoe is next to address. Overall very happy."

— Matthew T. (5/5)
