Crank Brothers Candy 3 Clipless MTB Pedals

The crankbrothers candy is an iconic pedal designed by Carl and Frank, the original founders of crankbrothers, they were tired of getting stuck in mud covered pedals with no way in or out. They realised that existing pedals were too complicated.It started with a simple question what is the best way to attach a shoe to a crank To answer this question, Carl and Frank created a system with only two moving parts hinging on a spring. This system became known as the eggbeater pedal, and later it was adapted into the candy pedal.The Candy is really diverse and is used by a wide range of riders. We have seen them out on the trail, at cyclocross races and even on commuter bikes. The cage around the 4 point engagement system inspires confidence and offers a great alternative to the eggbeater pedal if you want more of a pedal body surface area.Key FeaturesCleat Premium brass cleats includedShims IncludedRelease Angle 15 to 20Warranty 5 yearsWeight 304g per pairSpindle Forged scm435 chromoly steelBody 2 piece machined aluminiumWings Cast SteelSpring 300 series stainless steelInner bearing NeedleOuter bearing CartridgeMaximum rider weight No restrictionsColour options BlackSilver, BlueSilver or RedSilverYou can customise the fit and feel of your pedal using crankbrothers tread contact sleeves CRB 13282. These shims come with 3 different thicknesses enabling the rider to ensure good contact between their shoes and the pedal axle as the tread wears down the contact can move away from the axle and onto the wings of the pedal.As with the rest of the crankbrothers range the pedals are fully serviceable with a level 3 11 service kit product code CRB 11730. Servicing is simple and does not require any specialist tools, just a flat head screwdriver, socket wrench and 8mm allen key to hold the pedal by the axle. We recommend that the pedal is cleaned and greased every 30 hours of riding and the bearings are inspected for wear.
