PRIMO – TURBO PEDALS PROMO

Leave a Comment

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!

Rich Hirsch – New Stranger and Primo Product Sneak Peek

Leave a Comment

We haven’t been big fans of all the Vlogs, but we’ve been into Rich Hirsch‘s latest videos that he has been putting up on the Stranger channel. The reason for that is because he’s been sharing videos from where Stranger and Primo parts are being manufactured over in Taiwan. Today he dropped a video giving us a look at some of the new products they are currently testing like their new V2 freecoaster and front hub, Crux XL rim, new Stevie Churchill headset caps and tire color, some new bars, a fork and more. Plus, Rich strapped the camera on for some riding to test out a few of the new products before taking a spill. Take a look!

“You win some you lose some… Today I took out my new camera and tried to shoot some ride test shots while testing out some new pegs, and wheels but the spot gods had other plans and I ended up headbutting the sidwalk.

Featuring: @richhirsch

Note: Still working out the kinks in shooting with this new SJCAM M20, need to figure out how to dial in the mount and get it to point up a bit more.”
