PRIMO – TURBO PEDALS PROMO

February 7, 2019

Get a look at the new Turbo Pedals from Primo!

Is it time for a fresh set of BMX Pedals? Here’s a look at the new Primo Turbo Pedals for you to check out! These pedals feature a pedal body that covers more of the spindle so the body sits almost flush with your crank arms eliminating that gap that’s usually there, which is designed to help with pedal grinds! Get a look at the pedals in the video above, then learn more below!

“When Connor Keating approached us with this idea we knew instantly that it was something that we had to try to make a reality. The Turbo pedal has a unique body shape that covers the end of the axle giving a near flush connection to the crank arm. This allows you to have much more foot placement freedom when standing on the pedal as well as more grip, an improved surface contact area for modern day crank arm grinds and an all-around more aesthetically pleasing appearance. The pedal can be tightened via an Allen bolt on the backside of the spindle and also allows for the use of a thin park tool style pedal wrench.

(Make sure to grease your spindles so they don’t get stuck in them cranks!)” – Primo

The Turbo Pedals are available now for $19.99 in Black and Tiffany Blue through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Primo worldwide now. You can check out more photos and details on the Primo website!

What do you think of the Turbo Pedals? Do you think that smaller gap between the body and the crank arm will make a difference? Who plans on trying them out? Let us know what you’re thinking in the comments below!

Profile Racing – From The Dungeon: History of the Iconic Horseshoe Pedal

July 2, 2018

Profile Racing’s Jim Alley takes us back down to the dungeon to check out the mold for their iconic Horseshoe pedal…

Over the course of the 50 years that Profile Racing has been around, they’ve done a number of products that could be classified as iconic. One of those parts is their Horseshoe Pedal that was apart of their line up in the early 80’s. Today, Jim Alley takes us back into the dungeon to tell the story of how and why the Horseshoe Pedals were made. This is a real interesting one if you’re a fan of learning how things are made.

“In celebration of Profile Racing’s 50th anniversary, owner and founder, Jim Alley, invites us into the company’s original Florida location where some sections of this dark and dusty industrial cave have been sealed off since 2004.
Over time, this building (appropriately named “The Dungeon” by employees) has become a time capsule; a host to historical artifacts capturing Profile’s legacy in both the automotive and bicycle industry.
Join us on this multi-episode series as we press record and let Jim imbue his wealth of knowledge on conjured pieces of the past.

This is From the Dungeon.

Welcome.

The Return of the SE Bikes Bear Trap Pedals

December 4, 2017

Just when you thought it was crazy Odyssey brought back their Triple Traps, SE is bringing back the Bear Trap pedals!

The other day we saw that Odyssey had brought back their old school Triple Trap Pedals and we figured it was a strange time to bring back super gnarly pedals that would give most BMX riders these days nightmares just thinking about them bashing their shins. Well, apparently the old school BMX Pedals are making a comeback because SE Bikes are also bringing back their BEAR TRAP PEDALS to give you some grip and likely leave some scars on your shins. These pedals start out with the anodized aluminum cage with plenty of jagged teeth for grip that connects to a 9/16″ boron steel spindle with loose ball bearings to keep ’em spinning. These also come with reflectors, but we’ll just assume you’ll be ripping those off right away.

The Bear Trap pedals come in anodized black, silver, anodized red, anodized blue and anodized gold with a weight of 14.6 oz. and a price tag of $24.99 for the pair.

Anodized Red

Anodized Silver

The Return of the Odyssey Trail Mix and Triple Trap Pedals

December 1, 2017

Odyssey have re-released their Trail Mix pedals and the legendary Triple Trap pedals!

Odyssey Triple Trap Pedals

Some of you may be wondering what year it is… Some of you might be wondering if these were actually BMX pedals people used to ride. Others might be excited about this news. Others might be grabbing their shins in fear of the torture that these pedals undoubtedly could do to you. Either way, it’s 2017 (Less than a month from 2018) and the crew at Odyssey have re-released their legendary TRIPLE TRAP BMX PEDALS by popular demand (We’re not sure who, but we’re looking at you older guys in the corner with the retro bikes — Don’t worry, we like you).

The Triple Trap Pedals are based off the original design with the aluminum body and replaceable cages. Inside you can find a 9/16″ spindle and loose ball bearings to keep them spinning. Available in Black, Anodized Blue and Anodized Red for $24.99 through Odyssey BMX dealers worldwide now.

Odyssey Trail Mix Pedals

Now, the Triple Trap pedals might not be quite your speed, but we do have a feeling a few more of you will be pleasantly surprised to know that Odyssey have also re-released their ever popular Trail Mix Pedals in both Looseball and Sealed versions. These pedals have the aluminum body with the concave shape and 8 metal pins per side for superior grip. Inside you can find a 9/16″ spindle and either loose ball bearings or sealed bearings depending on your budget and how much you prefer sealed bearings.

The Loose Ball Trail Mix pedals come in black and polished with a price tag of $34.99 through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Odyssey.
The Sealed Bearing Trail Mix pedals come in black only with a price tag of $59.99 through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Odyssey now.

So, that’s the good word. Odyssey have brought back two of their classic and iconic pedals that have been favorites for a ton of riders all around the world. Unfortunately we left out the entire segment of you guys that like plastic pedals, so we’ll just recommend the Twisted Pro Pedals.

What do you think? Are you stoked to see the Triple Trap pedals back? How about the Trail Mix pedals? Let us know what you think in the comments!

BSD – 2018 White and Gum Parts

November 28, 2017

Looking to freshen your bike up with some new parts? BSD have just released their new gum and white colored parts to help you out.

There’s something about getting a fresh pair of BMX grips or BMX pedals on your bike. It always seems to make the bike feel better. Now if you’re a fan of the gum or white colors, you have a few new options courtesy of BSD. Here’s a look at the new Passenger and Slim grips in both colors, the matching M-Cap barends and the Forever barends without the metal, and the Reed Stark signature Safari plastic pedals.

Can’t go wrong with the look gum has on a bike. Matching the grips and pedals is never a bad idea, either.

Although white does get a little dirty, it looks awesome when it’s clean. You can even pair these white parts with the new BSD White Donnasqueak and Donnastreet tires!

“The pedal is a key contact point between you and your bike, so we made the new Shadow Surface Pedal with performance and function in mind. We started with a wider and longer, slim platform. The wide 105mm x100mm platform is specifically shaped to be thin and stiff while still offering an overall concave shape. We added advanced micro knurling and 12 pins per side for a maximum grip that still allows foot adjustments mid-shred. Made with the same proven nylon composite material as the Ravager pedal, with a heat treated chromoly axle that includes a 6mm broach for ease of installation and high end looks.” – The Shadow Conspiracy
