I was running a set of nylon composite pedals on my enduro mountain bike. They were small and were starting to get beat up from pedal strikes. I decided it was time to upgrade before I had one break, out on the trails.
In looking for a replacement, my criteria were -
- The pedals needed to be reasonably lightweight metal pedals. I ride enduro and downhill and need a pedal that can take the impacts that inevitably come with that style of riding. Weight is important for enduro riding, but lightweight does not help if the pedal breaks.
- I wanted a mid-large sized pedal. The ones I was replacing were smaller, and were slightly small for my size 11 feet.
The Stamp 7 hit both of my key criteria so I picked them up and so far I love them. While they are not huge, they are roughly 10mm larger in each dimension which is noticeable when you are riding. And the Stamp 7 comes with an aluminum body and cro-moly spindle for durability.
Installation is relatively straightforward if you have a metric hex/allen wrench set. Just make sure you follow the manufacturer instructions to identify the left and right pedals, and install them to the torque spec recommended.
Once you get them installed, and give them a test ride, you can customize your pedal pins. I included a photo showing the extra pins included with these pedals, which allow you to go with all short, all long, or a mix of short and long pins exactly where you want/prefer them.
The Stamp 7 comes in two sizes, and as mentioned I went with the larger size which they recommend for my shoe size. But, if you prefer smaller pedals the Stamp 7 also comes in a smaller size which is 100 x 100mm. The larger size I got is 114 x 111mm. If you are looking for a high quality flat pedal I highly recommend these.
