Why we made this
Mecanizado CNC
El mecanizado CNC es un proceso en el que una pieza de materia prima o material se corta hasta obtener la forma final deseada mediante una máquina controlada por computadora y, a menudo, varias máquinas herramienta. Dependiendo de la operación, se denominan diferentes herramientas, por ejemplo, fresas de bolas, fresas de extremo, fresas de roscar, machos de roscar y sierras de corte, entre otras. Todas tienen diferentes usos y vienen en una gran variedad de formas y tamaños.
El mecanizado produce piezas extremadamente precisas, a menudo con un margen de error de 0,001" (lo sé, en Canadá el sistema es mayoritariamente métrico, pero la industria utiliza predominantemente unidades imperiales) y es reconocido por crear una apariencia de muy alta gama con superficies 3D y bordes limpios y fuertes que la forja no puede producir.
Dado que cada aspecto de la pieza debe recortarse, la producción de piezas mecanizadas requiere mucho tiempo. Por ejemplo, el mecanizado de la carrocería de una Ranger requiere 20 minutos (la placa frontal se fabrica por separado), y luego aún necesita desbarbarse, comprobarse la calidad, anodizarse, grabarse con láser y ensamblarse.

características principales
Todos nuestros pedales están construidos sobre esta base.
Diseñamos el sistema de eje G.3 teniendo en cuenta la longevidad y la facilidad de servicio.
El sistema G.3 utiliza un eje de cromoly de alta resistencia con un sello doble, un buje interior y un cojinete de cartucho exterior.
El Pilot y el Radar utilizan los mismos componentes, pero con un eje más corto. Este eje se denomina F.1.
Nuestro sistema de pasadores se ajusta en altura mediante las arandelas incluidas. Se pueden reemplazar fácilmente desde el otro lado del cuerpo del pedal, incluso si están dañados.
Algunos modelos cuentan con ubicaciones de pasadores alternativas para personalización o si los orificios existentes están dañados.
Cada juego viene con pines de repuesto.
Todos nuestros pedales están disponibles en una amplia gama de colores para adaptarse a tu estilo y combinar con el resto de tu bicicleta.
(Aunque tu estilo sea todo negro.)
Preguntas frecuentes sobre pedales
Todos nuestros pedales utilizan una rosca de 9/16" x 20tpi, que es estándar en la industria de la bicicleta.
Nuestros pedales se adaptan a casi cualquier bicicleta, con la excepción de las bielas BMX de una pieza de gama baja, algunas bicicletas para niños u otras bicicletas muy antiguas.
¡Sí! Tendrás un pedal izquierdo y uno derecho.
Los pedales tienen roscas específicas para ambos lados (para que no se desenrosquen al pedalear). Es fundamental instalarlos en el lado correcto.
El eje del pedal izquierdo tiene una pequeña cresta a su alrededor (esto se vuelve importante si estás realizando mantenimiento a tus pedales), pero la forma más fácil de saberlo es que los gráficos/logotipos se leen en la dirección correcta desde el punto de vista del ciclista.
¡Sí! Recibirás pasadores y arandelas de repuesto en la caja.
Tus pedales durarán muchísimo tiempo. Con el cuidado adecuado, es común que duren una década o más.
El principal desgaste que encontrará son los pines dañados, que son fácilmente reemplazables. Si se agotan, vendemos paquetes aquí .
A veces conviene realizar una revisión completa de los pedales si funcionan mal o si se ha doblado un eje. Puedes cambiar el eje, los bujes y los rodamientos, que puedes comprar aquí .
Sin embargo, la mayoría de las veces, un rápido desmontaje, limpieza y engrase mantendrán sus pedales funcionando sin problemas durante años.
En esencia, el factor Q es la distancia entre los puntos de fijación de los pedales en las bielas, también conocida como banda de rodadura. También podría describirse como el ancho de las bielas. Esto afecta tu postura; si alguna vez has practicado snowboard, imagínatelo como la distancia entre tus pies.
Grease the threads and use pedal washers.
The graphic will read correctly from the riders POV, to help you identify the left and right side.
Give each of the pins a little 1/8 turn to make sure they are tight. You can adjust the height of the pins by adding/removing washers.

Customers praised these clipless pedals as "indestructible" with exceptional build quality and platform support. Many noted the solid SPD-compatible clip mechanism with adjustable tension and pin customization. Some found clipping in/out smoother than competitors, though one customer experienced difficulty with toe bar clearance.
I bought a TI Rootdown full build directly from the Chromag shop over the phone five and half years , it was an awesome bike buying experience, dealing with Chromag’s knowledgeable staff over the phone and in person about what ever questions I had was and is a good experience, I recently stopped in the shop on my way through Whistler and bought there Pilot pedals for my rootdown, and no regrets, the pedals are amazing, my feet are glued to the pedals I feel so connected to my root down, definitely a happy Chromag owner and customer ✌️
After 6 weeks of heavy use in the bike park and trail riding I can say that these are my new favourite pedals. It's the og spd feeling mixed with Chromag pedals. Entry and release is consistent (I don't find this to be the case with crankbro's)and feels solid every time with both Chromag and Shimano cleats. They have better mud clearance than spd's. If you remove the pins you get the same lateral floating feeling but if you keep them they feel like flats, it is very solid. Love them!
The absolute best. Rock-solid platform. This is my go-to pedal for all of my bikes.
I bent a set of Deore cranks slamming the pedals and crank into a rock in the heat of a race but THE PEDAL STAYED TRUE!!! I own three pairs of and happily love them. I wouldn't mind a set of clipless in orange but I think I'm set now ;-)
Keep on making a great product and thanks for having replacement parts and instructions easily available although it seems like I won't need them that much :D
I’ve been riding my purple Pilot pedals for 2 seasons already. They’re literally the best clip-in pedals with the SPD system and I’ve tried a lot of them (Saint, HT, FUNN …). Lightweight, durable, easy to adjust, still no play after 2 years.
I've been riding SPD clipless pedals for 16 years and these are the first pedals in a while I've bought that are not from Shimano and I am very impressed! The tension mechanism is a huge improvement. I can match the same tension on either side without counting clicks. I can rotate either direction to get out of the clips smoothly, the pins help hold my foot in place if I miss a pedal yet don't get in the way when I do want to clip in. You can feel the quality of the pedals and I'm happy I took a gamble buying them.
I want a solid pedal with bright color for my new build and being a SPD user for years this seems like the logical choice. But as far as SPD goes, this unfortunately falls short in comparison to the major 'S' brand. The problem I have with these pedal is clipping in and out is not as smooth as the S brand. Upon closer inspection I think the problem lies with the toe bar being too low. The toe bar on the 'S' brand seems to be a hair higher or a little flare up depends on the model, allowing the cleat to be able to easily catch and slot-in in one swift motion. On the Pilot, quite often I've found myself need to seach for the entry point and sometimes the cleat will slide pass the toe bar. Such design also create problem when trying to exit. With a tighter space between the toe bar and the front of the cleat. The front of my cleats will always linger or get caught in the toe bar even when my foot have rotated way beyond the degree of release. I have to remind myself that I had to 'rotate and pull' to release instead of 'rotate' to release on my other SPD pedals. In fact when I was setting it up in my garage it fail to release and I felt to my side along with my bike locked to the trainer. Quit painful on the concrete floor and the tension on the pedal at the time was at it's lowest. I really like the overall design of the Pilot pedals and the build quality is top notch. But sometimes it only take some mirco differences in design to make or break a product. Kudos to chromag for the effort but I hope improvement will be made in the future. I'm all for supporting Canadian products.
Hi there,
thanks for your honest review and for taking the time writing it.
Mind sending me an email directly? We have an updated release mechanism, that I'd like to send out to you.
Thanks again,
cheers,

Got these the other day to replace some HT's - they are a great combination of clip in with some pins in case you miss it!
The Pilot pedals have been the toughest I’ve used, I tend to bend a lot of pedals and have not managed to damage a set of the pilots yet. Their simple design provides good support for the foot with a big platform. This helps with foot cramps and gives more control over the bike. All in all a great pedal with a beautiful design and I would not run anything else.
You guys do a great job. Very high quality
Love the pedals.
Love the Details, love the quality, love the products, love the performance!!!
I've been really impressed by the build quality and function of these. Having used XT trails for years and wanting to try a pedal with more support and traction while unclipped, these fit my needs perfectly.
It's great having the familiar feel of SPD engagement with a more of a cage to provide more input for handling and moving the bike around, but the cages aren't so big as to interfere in tight situations.
Clipping in and out feels crisp and is intuitive. These are a great option if you're looking for Chromag build quality, looks and serviceability and a little more meat to your pedals than the some of the smaller options out there, without adding too much weight or bulk.
I'm very stoked on these pedals. I had to fiddle a bit getting them set up with my shoes - I found that the rear pedal pins (2 pins behind the cleat insert section of pedal) were grabbing the sole of my shoe and made it hard to clip out. SO I removed these pins and no problem - still a big cage to stand on while unclipped. Also found I had to tighten the spring to half way on the display to feel a good positive eject. Once set, I LOVE THESE PEDALS!
Full disclosure - I work at Chromag. But I have been using these pedals for a few thousand km's and have some thoughts that might be helpful to buyers. I've tried them with 3 different pairs of shoes and haven't had any issues with struggling to clip in, or hanging up on clip out. If you're having issues, a second washer can be added under the pins if needed, or the pins can be removed altogether depending on shoe and/or preference. I have tried them without pins and find that I still get the benefits of the large platform, but the float feels a bit more "free". With the pins, you can still clip out no problem, but it feels a bit more locked in place and resistant to twisting, like a flat pedal. I think experienced clip riders will like this feeling, but obviously down to personal preference. The anodizing on either side of the binding was pretty worn off after a couple months, from pedal strikes and/or from missing the binding when clipping in. And like any moving part, the bindings can start to squeak when pedalling after riding in dusty conditions. Just keep the bindings clean, and apply a bit of triflow on the springs to avoid this.
great new pedal, easy to click in and out.
i took two pins out on each side to fit my shoe better, still super grippy.
5stars, would recommend
do shoes come with the pedals or do I order them seperatly
Hi Charlie,
I assume you are asking about cleats coming with the pedals?
If so, yes, cleats are included in the box.
Thanks,
J-M
