Gusset Slim Jim pedal review
Although Gusset’s Slim Jim has been given a recent makeover, we never actually tested the original. What we do know is this Slim Jim is the cheapest pedal in our…
Shimano Saint PD-M821 pedal review
Shimano’s latest Saint-level SPD is one of the biggest and heaviest clipless pedals on test but that meaty cage is pretty invisible when your foot is on it. Whether it…
Shimano PD-ME700 pedals review
Having gone back to clipless pedals recently, I can honestly say that being attached to your bike lets you ride faster on rough tracks. It’s also more efficient, and it…
DMR Vault Mag pedals review
One of the stone-cold classic MTB flat pedals, DMR’s Vault has earned multiple glowing reviews from us over the years. Its success lies in a deeply-dished platform with a big…

SQlab 5OX pedal review

Deity Bladerunner pedals review

Chromag Synth flat pedal review

Specialized Supacaz ePedal e-bike pedal review
The best mountain bike flat pedals of modern times all have one thing in common – their big, sturdy platform. The Supacaz ePedal looks to flip this on its head…
