OneUp Components Launch NEW Clip Pedals
OneUp Components NEW OneUp Clip Pedals
Your New Favourite Clip Pedals
Light enough for cross country and durable enough for downhill. OneUp Clip Pedals are an ultra thin, super light pedal with a DH-size platform and a secure feel that you can fine tune. They’re SPDTM compatible and available in 8 colours.
Ultra Thin. Super Light.
At only 26.8mm, OneUp Clip Pedals 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 the benefit of a larger platform without increasing the chance of pedal strikes. A thin pedal body has less material which makes them super light.
Large Platform
We wanted the confidence-inspiring feel of flat pedals with the efficiency and performance of clips. Many other clip pedal platforms don’t touch your shoe when clipped in. Our large platform is designed to actively support your shoe while riding, giving you more confidence and control. Four removable hollow pins let you further adjust grip and feel.
Custom Stainless Steel Binding
We love the SPDTM system because it’s proven, reliable and the world’s most popular cleat standard. Our custom binding mechanism eliminates all front-back and up-down movement. This gives you a tighter cleat fit that doesn’t sacrifice float or ease of release for a locked-in feel that’s fully adjustable. This is how clip pedals are supposed to feel.
Adjustable Cleat Fit
Our SPDTM compatible mechanism gives you 5° of float and a 12° release angle with no unwanted play between the cleat and binding. OneUp’s clip mechanism lets you fine tune the feel of your pedals and has a wider range of spring tension adjustment than Shimano. The included cleat spacers and removable pins allow for the perfect fit with any shoe.
DH-Rated
OneUp Clip Pedals have DH-rated spindles that are strong enough for all riding styles. We use reliable sealed cartridge bearings that are long-lasting and easy to replace when needed. And the hollow pin design means you can easily remove and replace pins, even if they’re damaged. The super light design means our pedals are perfect for all types of riding from XC to DH.
In stock and available now.

I beat the living shit out of my XT and saints and they take it. Will these stand up?

That’s the big question Trogdor. For me Shimano pedals have been as reliable as a brick. I know some of the XTR pedal axles did break at the end for a couple people but not me. Easy to service and they just work. I think the brass cleats that CB and Time use are soft so as not to wear the clamping mechanism too fast. When I ran Time pedals the bars wore down pretty quick.
I bought Saint pedals last season to see if I liked the platform style with pins. I do. It’s subtle but I think I prefer that. But yeah Saint pedals are bricks. If these were out last year I would have bought them.

Brick strong, brick heavy. I find my fat ass being 10 pounds lighter in summer a bigger difference than pedal weight.
Still game to give these a go in future. Local company and all that.

I love the support my Saint clips give me over the XT Trails but the Saints have a more vague clip in feel and have boat anchor weight. Hopefully these OneUps have juuuust the right combo.

I've got some on the way and I'll be comparing them to Saints and XT(R) trail pedals.

Agreed. XTR-like weight with Saint-like dimensions. Promising. Looking forward to Pete's review.

Hmmm, these might just make me go back to clip in pedals again.

I think I’ll go for the Hope pedals if my trusty Shimano DX pedals ever die, assuming I’ve not died before them.

Doesn’t the Hopes have proprietary cleats?

I'm rooting for your pedals to die first.
And I often have the same thoughts. A "lifetime guarantee" is less of a a bargain than it used to be.

Look fwd to a longterm review, ideally in comparison to the HT T2 pedals (378 g) that generally come out the winner in the comments section of any clip in pedal review.

They are more inline with the X3 size wise.

It’ll be interesting to read the review. My first thought was these look exactly like HT T2s. I love those pedals but they had a lot of maintenance issues and very little US support. I’d definitely buy the OneUp version given how great the company is.

Zero maintenance issues with my 3 pairs of T2s and thousands of miles, but most of my miles are in dry or dryish conditions. The OneUp bushing + outboard bearing design looks similar to T2 right?

Definitely agree that through my other job at a bike shop and circle of friends that I've heard a fair share of stories about them needing frequent rebuilds. It's worth pointing out that *generally* HT attracts riders (heavier + riding harder) that value/need the extra spring tension adjustment because they have a tendency to blow out of other pedals - so that may sku the feedback a bit.

Was wondering how come NSMB didn't have coverage of this being native and all, guess I missed this.
Yeah, definitely interested in these, love the colour options and the weight, which I guess is why the price is so high to me, but yeah if they're that size and weight, would be worth it I'm thinking.
Have one serious question that I'm hoping OneUp will chime in on since they seem to be monitoring this and that is Q-factor, flat vs clipless. Before I broke my knee, I was happy with my bullet proof Shimano regular SPDs without platform, only rode flats on my commuter and they were just cheap metal, narrow ones, did try a set of Nuke Proof DH pedals with the platform and really couldn't notice the platform, but did notice the weight, then I broke my kneecap and had to switch to flats.
Even using a proper set of composite NP flats, which are much wider than any clipless I've tried, I noticed that with my feet in a natural position where my knees and hips felt best, I still had about 10mm to the inside of the pedal, i.e. my feet were off the outside of the pedals. When my knee had sufficient movement and strength I started to use clipless again, but they made my knee and hips "hurt" because of how narrow they were, so I ordered a set of 20mm pedal extenders and gave them a go and voila, no more knee or hip problems.
So my question is, why are clipless pedals so much narrower than flats, makes absolutely no sense to me what so ever?
Really hoping that OneUp offers wider/longer axle options for these so I don't have to use pedal extenders, which I haven't had any issues with in the least, they have done exactly what they said they would, nothing more.
