FOOT FETISH
During the development process, we got really into foot placement. We found that when it comes to flats, riders tend to place either the ball of their foot or their midfoot over the pedal axle. For the pedal to provide maximum grip, it needs to accommodate both, and that's what we did with the new Loam - designing a platform that offers phenomenal grip and support no matter where you land.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS?
How are the Gen 2 Loam Pedals different from the Gen 1 Loam Pedals?

What is the Tectonic™ Pin system?
Stainless steel patented Tectonic™ traction pins offer incredible grip, durability, and ease of maintenance. The Tectonic™ pin system reduced our pin count from 22 to 12 pins per pedal. The pins run vertically through the pedal body and are easily replaced with outboard 2.5mm set screws. Replacing all pins is much faster than traditional systems, and if a pin is severely thrashed during a moment of shred, it’s still easily replaceable. Tectonic™ traction pins are patented by Tectonic Components of Colorado, USA.
Is it easy to service the Gen 2 Loam Pedals?
They’re extremely simple to service. The 18mm cartridge nut can be cracked open with common tools like a fixed or adjustable crescent wrench, socket wrench, channel locks, etc. Once the cartridge is removed, the 8mm axle nut can also be removed with any one of those basic tools. Removing the axle nut gains access to the two sealed cartridge bearings and single bushing inside the cartridge. A full teardown is possible in minutes without specialized tools.
How are the Gen 2 Loam Pedals constructed?
The pedal platform is CNC’d and finished with laser-etched details.
Can I use the Gen 2 Loam Pedals for DH riding or on my e-bike?
Yes, and we encourage it. The Gen 2 Loam Pedals are EFBE Category 5 certified, meaning they are good to go for the most aggressive riding, including e-bikes and DH riding.
Do the pedals come with extra pins?
Yes, in the package you’ll find a small parts envelope with 2x Tectonic pins, 2x set screws, and 2x pedal washers.
