Why we made this
CNC Machining
CNC Machining is a process in which a piece of raw material or stock is cut into a final desired shape using a computer controlled machine and often several different machine tools. Depending on the operation in question different tools are called, for example ball mills, end mills, thread mills, taps and slitting saws to name a few, all have different uses and come in all manner of shapes and sizes.
Machining produces extremely accurate parts, often to within 0.001" (I know, Canada is mostly metric but the industry predominately uses imperial units), and is renowned for creating a very high-end look with 3D surfacing and clean, strong edges which forging cannot produce.
Because every aspect of the part must be "cut out" machined parts take a long time to produce. A Ranger body for example takes 20 minutes to machine (the face plate is made separately), then it still needs to be deburred, quality checked, anodised, laser etched and assembled.

key features
All of our pedals are built upon this foundation.
We designed the G.3 axle system with longevity and serviceability in mind.
The G.3 system uses a high-strength chromoly axle with a double seal, inner bushing, and outer cartridge bearing.
The Pilot & Radar use all the same components, but with a shorter axle. We designate this axle as F.1.
Our pin system is height adjustable via the included washers. They are easily replaceable from the other side of the pedal body, even if damaged.
Some models feature alternate pin locations for customization, or if existing holes are damaged.
Each set comes with spare pins.
All of our pedals are available in a wide range of colours to suit your style and match the rest of your bike.
(Even if your style is all black everything.)
Pedal FAQ's
All of our pedals use a 9/16" x 20tpi thread which is standard in the bike industry.
Our pedals will fit almost any bike with the exception of low-end 1 piece BMX cranks, some kids bikes or other very old bicycles.
Yes! You will get both a left and a right pedal.
Pedals have specific left and right threads (so they don't unscrew while you pedal). It is very important these are installed on the correct side.
The left pedal axle does have a little ridge around it (this becomes important if you are servicing your pedals), but the easiest way to tell is that the graphics/logos read the correct way around from the rider's point of view.
Yes! You will get some spare pins & washers in the box.
Your pedals will last a very long time. It's not uncommon for our pedals to last a decade or more with the right care.
The main wear you will encounter is damaged pins which are easily replaceable. If you run out, we sell packs here.
Sometimes it's a good idea to do a complete service on your pedals if they are running rough or if you have managed to bend an axle. You can change the axle, bushings and bearings which can be purchased here.
However more often than not, a quick strip-down, clean and regrease will keep your pedals running smooth for years to come.
Essentially Q-Factor is the distance between the pedal attachment points on the crank arms, also referred to as Tread. It could also be described as the width of your crankset. This affects your stance, if you've ever been snowboarding think of it as the same thing, essentially the distance between your feet.
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.
Which pedal is right for me? So, you’re looking for a fresh set of pedals. Naturally, getting a set of Chromag’s will ensure you are getting some of the best...
I bought these to build up my P4 and they are absolutely perfect! Theres another pedal that chromag makes, called the contact (i think?) that i was considering but prefer a little more grip. Id say these would be equally at home on a dh rig and a dirt jumper.
Chromag SCARAB LTD , these are my favorite petals and they’re the best!!
You guys are always the best! Very accommodating and friendly. Rockstars!

Looking great, some unique pedals here, lets see how many make it to europe :-)
I love 'em . Great grip ,hold my feet in place. Wanted a silver pedal to show less scuffs and scratches ,then cromag came out with these Ltd edition colored beauties and they fit the bill perfectly 👌
This is my go to pedal for all my bikes. Absolutely love them
Title says it all. If you like moderate-tacky grip they’re perfect as is, but if you like the glued to the pedal feel then don’t forget to remove the pin spacers and your locked in👌
I bought some Cromag pedals and waited patiently for them to ship from Canada to Australia.
When they arrived, they had an issue. I contacted the team and they resolved the issue quickly. The pedals are very high quality and they are great for enduro and downhill.
I purchased the 50mm rise bars and scarb pedals. They are exceptional quality and the service response time was amazing.
They feel great and hold your feet in place really well.
Shoe to pedal grip there is no better, axles and bearings better than crank bros
I have these pedals on every bike I own. Trail bike, eMTB, dirt jumper and BMX. The large platform ensures secure foot placement and great ride feel. The thin profile helps to reduce pedal strikes. Highly recommended!
Peadles look phenomenal. Great quality but one pedal squeaks and the other one creaks out of the box. Very annoying. Hoping it will go away with some use.
Hi Max,
thanks for your review and sorry to hear that is happening.
Have you tried take the body off the axle and checking if they are properly greased?
Let me know at jm@chromagbikes.com
Thanks,
JM
These petals are super good looking and perform really well, I love them!
never ridden anything else, no quality compares, got the gold color and love it, bright and beautiful!
Coming from a lifetime of riding on clipless pedals, I was skeptical of flats. These strike a great balance of grip, but allow you to move your feet when you want. Excellent traction for the rough sections, but your feet are free to move around when you make a deliberate move. The size feels great on my 43 Freerider Pros, and they are holding up extremely well.
I’ve been using these pedals for some time now and they have fully met my expectations and I’ve not experienced any issues. I’d recommend them.
So far so good amazing petals
Perfect amount of grip. Some pedals (Oneup) feel like you are so locked in you can't adjust your foot position. Not these guys. They have a bit of wiggle room for those times your feet aren't perfectly positioned. They are just right :)
Love these. They have a good amount of pins, nice profile that centers my foot and I haven't bent them yet!
Great quality, still running my last set and have used them for for the past 3 seasons. Max grip as well.
The two most important interfaces with your bike are your hands and feet. These pedals are bomber.
I´m a part of the extended family from Chromag bikes.
Those pedals are a dream.
Been using them on dirtjumping and Freeride and it´s been a dream.
Never had any problems with those and they are doing there Job amazingly well.
Cheers and Full send
Finish is nice, pedals are wide, pins are easy to change. Have had another set for years and the bearings are still smooth, axles are still straight.
I love this pedal, I’ve been riding it for about a year and have had no issues whatsoever.
These offer the best combination of grip, durability and aesthetics in a pedal that I've ever used. Someone might make a better pedals – maybe, doubtful – but no one makes a better gold pedal.
Great grip for trail riding, nice sized platform for all day comfort (sz 42 wide feet) and they stand up to abuse well. There are cheaper options out there for platform pedals but experience has been buy cheap buy twice.
Invincible pedals! Some competitors may be lighter, thinner, or prettier. These pedals stand up to serious abuse. No reason to look elsewhere. These pedals last longer than my bikes.
Had some issues with the first release version, but the new ones are flawless.
I bought these cause I like the look and function of the pins. Easy to remove even after a long time unlike the hex head ones.
