FAQs
Can I replace the pins if they get worn down?
Yes, the PA03A pedals feature 8 replaceable steel pins per side that can be swapped out as needed.
Are these pedals compatible with all mountain bikes?
They use a standard 9/16-inch threaded axle, which is compatible with the vast majority of modern mountain bike crank arms.
What is the material of the pedal body?
The body is constructed from a high-durability nylon composite.
How do I distinguish the left pedal from the right pedal?
The spindles are marked with an 'L' for left and 'R' for right. Remember that the left pedal is reverse-threaded.
Are the bearings serviceable?
The pedals utilize a fully sealed bearing system designed for low maintenance; however, professional service is recommended for deep internal maintenance.
Troubleshooting
Pedal feels tight or does not spin smoothly
Check if dirt has accumulated around the axle seal; clean the area and ensure the pedal is not over-tightened against the crank arm.
Noticeable movement or play in the pedal body
Verify that the pedal is fully tightened into the crank arm and check if the axle nut requires adjustment.
Reduced grip on the platform
Inspect pins for damage or excessive wear and replace any missing steel pins.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Replaceable steel pins for customizable grip
- Fully sealed bearings for long-term smooth operation

Cons
- Nylon body may be less impact-resistant than aluminum

- May require pedal wrench or hex key depending on bike crank compatibility
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward using a standard pedal wrench or a high-quality 8mm hex key. Ensure you identify the left (L) and right (R) pedals, as the left side features reverse threading to prevent it from loosening during use. Always apply a small amount of waterproof grease to the pedal threads before installing them into your crank arms to prevent oxidation. For care, periodically inspect the steel pins; if they become damaged from rock strikes, they can be removed and replaced to restore optimal grip. Clean the pedals after rides with mild soap and water to prevent mud buildup from affecting the seals.
