Best Mountain Bike Pedals

The Pd-Mx80 is the third generation of Shimano's Saint product line designed to provide the maximum stability for a rider. And these mountain bike pedals are truly grippy, giving you a full control of your bike. Thanks to these pedals, you can concentrate fully on riding without worrying about sliding off and falling. The secret is simple - the pedals have a really large platform that accommodates a foot of any size. Moreover, these best mountain bike pedals have replaceable pins on both sides. Unlike some simpler pedals, the Pd-Mx80s allow you to adjust the pins for the maximum grip no matter what kind of shoes you are wearing. Professional bike riders know that the pins wear off and that's why Shimano supplies these pedals with additional pins. Thus, these mountain bike pedals actually save your money! We would like to recommend you to use the Crank Brothers Multi Bicycle Tool - this multifunctional accessory is a must-have for any bike rider. The tool will help you carry out a repair of your bike no matter where you are.

Shimano is one of the leading companies manufacturing spare parts for bicycles. The producer offers a variety of products – from affordable to truly premium ones. The PD-T780 mountain bike pedals belong to Shimano’s top-tier Deore XT product line. These pedals are a multifunctional solution for all kinds of riding – from a morning ride around a city to a downhill competition. The PD-T780s have a unique design – a concave platform and a clipless SPD mechanism. Therefore, these multifunctional mountain bike pedals are suitable for both normal footwear and special cycling shoes. For example, you can just put on your favorite sneakers and use a platform for pedaling. And if you wish to enjoy a cross-country adventure, put your bike shoes on and go ahead. The SPD clipless mechanism is adjustable, so you can pick the right spring setting for the ultimate stability. The weaker the spring, the easier you step out of the clip – just turn your foot and it will be free. As usual, this motion is quite natural so most people learn how to do it rather quickly. However, don’t forget to protect your head wearing this Giros Savant road bike helmet.

Every bike rider knows that mud and dirt are inevitable disadvantages of a cross-country cycling as there are certainly some muddy areas on nearly any cross-country path. Splashes of mud cover the rider and the bike – from pedals to the seat. And mud is quite dangerous for pedals as it clogs them and might get into the spindle. That’s why these Bonmixc mountain bike pedals are designed to minimize the negative impact of mud and allow you to follow the most daredevil tracks without any troubles. The platform is rather big and has fairly big holes through which the mud falls off, leaving the body of the pedals clean. Thanks to this simple yet efficient solution, your feet will always stand firmly on the pedals instead of sliding on a thick layer of mud. The Bonmixc pedals have anti-slip nails, so you can put your favorite sneakers on and enjoy an exciting ride. We would also like to recommend you to wear special FIRELION Downhill Off-Road gloves that will give you a firm grip and protect your hands in case you fall.

As we have already mentioned, mountain bike pedals must be durable as downhill riding includes lots of jumps which load pedals immensely. The Wellgo company created the MG-1 platform pedals to withstand even the most extreme riding. The body of these Wellgo mountain bike pedals is made of high-quality magnesium alloy. This material is very firm so the pedals withstand even severe bumps (onto the ground or rocks, for example). Also, magnesium alloy pedals are more lightweight than those made of other materials, such as steel or aluminum alloy. The pedals have a highly reliable chrome-molybdenum spindle; the rotation is always smooth thanks to the sealed bearings that require no maintenance at all. As you can see, these mountain bike pedals are ready for any downhill path so choose them if you wish to get the adrenaline flowing in your veins! Of course, pedals must be properly attached to the crank arms of your bike and that’s why we advise you to use the Park Tool Home Mechanic pedal wrench. Carry this wrench in your cycling backpack and you will never have any problems with pedals.

The Time Atac MX 2 mountain bike pedals allow you to feel yourself a single entity with your bike. When you are riding a bike with clipless pedals, particularly if they are Time Atac MX 2, you fully interact with your two-wheeler as moving the pedals is effortless and your feet never slide off. If you install the Time Atac MX 2 mountain bike pedals, you will easily reach the maximum speed as the very clipless mechanism lets you move pedals not only when pushing them down with your feet but when dragging them as well. As a result, the movements of your feet become far more effective. The clipless mechanisms are on both sides of each Time Atac MX 2 pedal, which means you can easily pick the right position. These mountain bike pedals are shipped with a couple of cleats for your cycling footwear, so you don't need to buy them separately. However, clipless pedals might damage your shoes if you cycle a lot and that’s why we recommend using special Crank Brothers Bike shoe shields that will minimize the shoe tread interference and prolong the lifespan of your cycling shoes.
