OneUp Components are renowned for their innovative, high-quality mountain bike parts. In fact, Pinkbike readers voted their dropper posts, handlebars, and flat pedals as favorites in 2024. So, when I heard that OneUp was launching a brand-new clip pedal, I couldn’t wait to learn more.
Built around the reliable Shimano SPD cleat system, OneUp has engineered the thinnest clip pedal on the market. They’ve struck the perfect balance—trail pedal weight combined with a gravity-sized platform. And let me tell you, this is the first clip pedal that’s stayed on my bike for more than a few rides in nearly 30 years.
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Peter Skarsgard, the brilliant engineer behind this groundbreaking pedal. We’ll dive into the details of the design and development process. We also explore OneUp’s philosophy for flat pedal design, compare aluminum vs. composite pedals, and even get a little tease of something exciting coming soon from OneUp in the flat pedal world. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with OneUp Components’ Peter Skarsgard.
