Solid engagement and a platform
"Solid engagement and a platform pedal that actually provides a platform. This pedal definitely added a new level of control and stability to my mountain biking."
Clip Pedals
Ultra Thin.
At only 26.8mm, these are the thinnest mountain bike clip pedals in the world. And they have an extra large, DH-sized platform. The ultra thin profile means you get a larger platform that’s less prone to pedal strikes.
Large and Light.
Many other clip pedal platforms don’t even touch your shoe when clipped in. Our lightweight, large platform pedal is designed to actively support your shoe and give you more confidence and control.
Custom Stainless Steel Binding.
Our SPD™ compatible mechanism gives you 5° of float and a 12° release angle with no unwanted play. The tighter cleat fit doesn’t sacrifice float and delivers a locked-in and secure feeling.
Adjustable Cleat Fit.
Fine tune the feel of your pedals with a wider range of spring tension adjustment than Shimano, removable pins and the included cleat spacers for the perfect fit with any shoe.
FAQ
Do I need to install the updated binding plate myself?
Nope! Every pair of pedals has the updated binding plate installed from the get-go, so you're ready to roll, hassle-free.
How is the OneUp binding system different from Shimano SPD™?
Our design focuses on two key improvements: eliminating unnecessary play in the cleat-to-binding connection and increasing the maximum release tension. To achieve this, we completely redesigned the binding and refined the cleat-to-binding connection, creating a tighter, more secure fit without sacrificing float. This provides a locked-in, confident feel while you ride. For greater adjustability and control, we engineered springs with a higher maximum tension and a wider range of usable adjustments, allowing you to fine-tune your setup to match your preferences.
When should I use a cleat spacer? How can I make it easier to clip-in?
If you’re having trouble clipping into the pedal or the binding feels overly tight, even at low tension, there are two adjustments you can make.
First, installing a the provided cleat spacer(s) allows your cleat to make connection with the binding sooner, reducing the interference between the pedal and shoe and making it easier to clip-in.
Second, you can remove the pedal pins to eliminate any additional interference. We recommend starting by adjusting the front pins and then the rear pins, if necessary.
Can I use another brand's SPD™ cleat?
We recommend using our cleats with our pedals. However, Shimano SH51 SPD™ cleats are also compatible. We can't confirm compatibility with, or recommend, any other SPD™ based cleats from other brands. Use these at your own risk.
Are there any shoes that aren't compatible?
While we can't guarantee a completely universal fit with the multitude of shoe brands and sizes out there, any shoes with a 2-bolt cleat mounting interface should be compatible. Cleat spacers may be required in some cases.
Are the pins height adjustable? Can I ride the pedals without pins?
Our Clip Pedals can be used with or without the pins, but the pins themselves are not height adjustable. They are designed to bottom out in the pin hole, functioning like a standard screw.
If you’re trying to make clipping in easier, we recommend using a cleat spacer first to reduce interference between your shoe and the pedal. If additional adjustments are needed after installing the spacer, you can remove the pins to further minimize interference. Start by removing the front pins, and then the rear pins if necessary.
Why are the pins hollow? How can I remove a damaged pin?
The hollow design allows dirt to pass through the pin, eliminating the need to pick dirt out before removal. To remove a damaged pin, you can use a 2.5mm Allen key from either the front or back. If removing it from the back, remember to turn clockwise to loosen it. This design ensures easy maintenance and hassle-free removal when damaged.

Reviews
Good but tight cleat
"Pedal seems like its high quality and I like that its super thin/low profile. However, the cleat sits closer to the base of the pedal than shimano or other similar SPD style pedals. It does come with shims for your shoes, but if you have two bikes with different pedals, they will be too loose. Being so close, I have them set to the weakest release and its still pretty tight. Thats why I would only give them a 4 star rating."
Love em’
"Love the durability/adjustability/tune ability these pedals have without too much float."
coming from many years on
"coming from many years on XT these feel better. new favourite!"
Wafer-thin clipless goodness
"Love them. Made the mistake of not changing out my Shimano cleats before riding. The One-Up cleats are specific to the pedals. Word to the wise."
Increased platform for increased support.
"I've been using these for a month and really happy with them. The increased support has eliminated hot spots and the price is better than the XTR pedals."
Game Changer!
"Unless you obsess over weight savings, which means you likely won't use these pedals for their intended use anyway, there is no reason to ever purchase another clip-pedal for your SPD shoes. Absolutely stellar platform feel, great added grip with the knobs on the front and rear of the pedal. Finally, the colors are a great added pop to whichever color schematic you are after."
Very happy. Will buy again.
"Very happy. Will buy again. Great customer service"
LOVING IT, Super great profile
"LOVING IT, Super great profile and I'm really excited to know I don't have to replace them forever and can work on them myself. No Cons, only PROS!"
Stellar Pedal, couldn't be more happy!
"Thin, light, just as advertised. Retention is great, maybe too good!"
Q&A
- Are they usable without cleats (flat shoes like five-tens) ?
- Hi Francois, Thanks for your message, I'm happy to help. We don't recommend using the clip pedals with flat shoes for mountain bike riding. For short rides on road, they are fine, but not for actual mountain bike rides. Please let me know if there's anything else I can help you with. Cheers,
- Hi, We have a customer who is interested in using the Clip (platform) pedals with Shimano's CL-MT001 multi-entry, single-release cleat. What has been your experience and rider feedback for people using this combo? Thanks, looking forward to hearing back from you.
- Hey Eric, those cleats will be compatible with our pedals! Thanks for checking
- Hey, I bought the pedals last july. By august I noticed there was some play on my left pedal. The metal plate isn’t holding the coil anymore. I wrote you a message in september and never got a reply. Is there anything I could do to fix the pedal? I cannot use it as it is now.

- Hi. I ordered your clip pedals about a year ago and they’ve been great. Today I was fat biking and heard a noise as I was pedalling. The front binding clip was hanging by one screw on one pedal. I have the clip still. I inspected the other pedal and one of the clips was also loose and the screw threads seem mangled. Am I able to order new screws? To be safe I need 4. Let me know. Love your products!

- Hi, I was wondering if these pedals would be compatible with biking shoes form Ride Concepts?
- Hi Sydney! You should be good! We haven't had any reports of Ride Concept Shoes not working. I am running the hellion's and they work great.
