FAQs
What is the weight of these pedals?
The System EX DP950 Pedals weigh 310 grams per pair.
Are these pedals suitable for clipless riding?
No, these are flat pedals designed for use with regular cycling shoes, not clipless cycling shoes.
How do I know which pedal goes on which side?
Pedals are marked with 'L' for the left crank arm and 'R' for the right crank arm, usually on the spindle.
Can I use these pedals with my existing crankset?
Yes, these pedals use a standard 9/16 inch spindle, which is compatible with most modern bicycle crank arms.
How should I clean the rubber tread?
Use a damp cloth to wipe down the rubber tread. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
Do the reflectors need to be replaced?
The reflectors are typically durable, but if they become damaged or lost, they can usually be replaced with standard bicycle reflectors that fit the pedal body.
What is the spindle material?
The spindles are made of Cro Molybdenum steel (Cro Mo), known for its strength and durability.
Troubleshooting
Pedals feel loose after installation
Ensure pedals were tightened sufficiently with a pedal wrench. Re-grease threads and tighten again, ensuring correct (clockwise for right, counter-clockwise for left) threading.
Stiff or rough pedal rotation
This may indicate an issue with the internal ball bearings. Check for overtightening first. If the issue persists, the pedals may need servicing or replacement.
Squeaking noise from pedals
Often caused by dry threads where the pedal meets the crank arm. Apply fresh grease to the pedal threads and retighten.
