All of the new one up pedals are coming with a 1 mm longer axle and a different spacer to work with SRAM cranks now. Not sure when the changeover happened but the spacer looks noticeably different and there is a little play in the axle now. The second note is they don't use the best bearing. Not sure who it is but it is a 6802 and you can find those made by NTN or SKF which will last considerably longer
Sealed bearings are big bonus on any component. After repacking loose bearings on hubs or pedals for over 20 years, sealed bearings make your life much easier. I found the OneUp pedals are more overbuilt and suit a heavier rider. Its worth spending a bit more for something with greater durability and longevity. Buy once, cry once, especially when it comes to safety.
Fantastic comparison, thank you! I really think the OneUp peddles have the edge in pedal engineering, and I'm going to order a set to try and compare to my Stamp 7's which now need a re-build/ re-fresh after only a few months of riding... All the best and thanks again, Jay
My One Up failed during the first few months - they just wouldn't spin. It started with squeaking up to the point that it was impossible to turn them at all. Had to use pneumatic gun to detach them from the arm and send for warranty. I've checked reviews and apparently many others had exact same issue. Today I've placed the order for stomp 11 - fingers crossed it'll last longer than a few months only.
I’ve recently acquired these pedals on a Stumpjumper and after servicing with a new bearing kit. Just a word of warning. Make sure you slacken the bush screws off the right (wrong way!). I made this mistake and had to file two flat edges on the bolt to undo with mole grips. Lucky there’s fresh bolts in the service kit.
Thanks, I did forget to add that in the video but it's on the blog review we did here: gearchase.com/blog/oneup-components-aluminum-pedal-comparison-and-review/
@@GearChaseTube the second washer is so small it barely makes a difference as far as it threads in the crank arm. I wouldn't worry about it. Iv not had a problem and other ppl have done this too. I also use boots that I cut a bigger hole to allow clearance for the bigger diameter. Works and looks nice.
After purchasing the OneUp just recently I noticed that out of box the pedals spin freely, but when installed it doesn't spin freely. After couple of trails one pedal start squeaking, so I went back to the shop where I bought it and he installed a washer between the crank and pedal. That took care of the squeaky noise. Want to share your opinion why it doesn't spin freely when installed? It feels like a flaw and OneUp should do something about it.
That can depend on the cranks you are using, or if they have been serviced. Also if you are using crank boots can cause the pedals to rub. Just look closely for any indication of rubbing. I don't think it's a flat with the pedal design, just that there are a lot of different variables that can cause any pedal design to not spin freely.
The retaining O-ring is only to keep the flange washer and seal on pedal in the box and for assembly. It is not necessary for the function of the pedal and should be removed.
Do you find the Oneup pedals spin freely when sitting on the 8mm wrench, but the moment they are tightened to the crank arm, they can no longer free spin? That's what is happening to me, and I'm just not sure it's supposed to be this way... It looks to me like the rubber cap and flange washer are causing a binding which just restricts the spin a tiny bit. I tried multiple pedal washers, and I can't stop it from happening.
It depends on the pedal the one up pedal has four in the front and three in the back. Well the Crank Brothers has three in the front and three in the back.
Those screws look like some serious meat grinders. Does anyone make something similar to stock pedals but with a larger surface area front-to-back (i.e. toe-to-heel)? If not, what is pedal has the shortest or ROUNDEST pins, min 100mm front-to-back, and either fully flat or slightly concave?
You can always buy some shorter screws for crankbrothers or many other pedals. It's pretty normal sizing and you can get it in black too. Just don't look for 'specific' pins for crankbrothers and buy some normal screws, the specific ones are the normal ones but x10 price of it
Well done! Thanks 4 Oneup v. CBS7 v. RFC. I need the big-comfort, thin platform to minimize pedal strikes. The sealed cartridge spindle assembly of the OneUp, with the new oilslick color look pretty sweet and durable...I'm going for them!🤟 But not cheap!😝
Purchased the One up Oil slick colored alloy pedals ( day 0 ) . Received pedals 4 days later, installed on bike with stock cranks. ( day 1) rode bike 20 minutes later I hear a SQUEAKING NOISE FROM RIGHT PEDAL. head back home to see whats going on, and its a common issue with QC in construction. 175.00 and they tell me to take them apart and grease up anything dry, stretch the o ring. and remove it. Ridiculous. 1 year warranty. pathetic. Great colors, Poor quality. No thanks.
In my eyes the Crankbrothers pedal is overcomplicated with its internals. I chose the OneUp pedals specifically because of how simple they are put together, and how easily serviced as well. To have two halves you are supposed to tighten down around the axle is a recipe for disaster. Terrible design because that will definitely add sloppyness and just simply premature wear.
Thanks for your Rider for the comment. I tend to lean the same way I like the simplicity of the one up petals. However I've been riding the same pair of stamp pedals for 2 years now and haven't had any issues with them. One positive towards the stamp crank brother pedals is the pins are more adjustable than the one up pedals.

How are the oneups. I cant position my feet well on stamp 7. Are oneup aluminium pedals worth?
Great comparison of the different pedals on the shoe! Thanks

CB Stamp 11 are bombproof. Cant go wrong other than the $300 price tag
On the OneUp pedals washers should added when shortening the pins.

Nice comparison! Subscribed :)
Really good review, in depth and well thought out. Weight of item reviewed would be helpful, thanks.

Really good review!
Thanks!
Best looking alloy pedals on the market imo. I have purple, red and oil slick.
Couldn't agree more!
Just got theses pedals! They are awesome! Probably the best there are
Yes they are!
I'm using one up with sram carbon cranks with 2 washers, it fits and works fine.
I've heard that can work, but there is some risk especially if you are a heavier rider.
@@GearChaseTube oh snap didn’t know that
@@GearChaseTube the second washer is so small it barely makes a difference as far as it threads in the crank arm. I wouldn't worry about it. Iv not had a problem and other ppl have done this too.

@@YoMumzinnit yea, give it a try, works fine.
It's a cassette lock ring tool, not a chainring tool. Surely you adjust pin height by using washers under the heads of the pins...?

You’ve got the collar on back to front. The flat part of the collar should be on the crank side
Thanks for the video
Glad you liked it Bill, we will be adding more content like it to our channel.
My $35 Chinese Rock Bros work awesome.
Always room for improvement
Thanks really eye opening video
So nice of you
did they change the internals, going from 3x bearings to a brass bushing??
What is the best touring pinless pedals on the market?
One up pedals are the only pedals I run in my bikes
Super helpful, ty!!
Glad it was helpful!
What specific grease do you use?
Man just felt these in the bike shop and they are huge, lots of surface area. Definitely want them now but that price is steep
Yeah they're a great pedal, I know what you mean about the price!
Do you think the one up pedals would offer less spinning resistance because of the bearing?
I have thought the same, but when using the pedals I can't tell a difference. There may be a few watts left behind but nothing I'm concerned about.
Do all flat pedals fit any mtb? I’m thinking about buying the nukeproof Sam Hill pedals for my 2012 giant trance x4 but have no clue if they’ll fit?
No, there are different size spindles and cranks. You need to double check the pedal spindle size will fit your crank.
Transitionally, do flats have more pegs in the front or back?
It depends on the pedal the one up pedal has four in the front and three in the back. Well the Crank Brothers has three in the front and three in the back.
@@GearChaseTube thank you!
Anyone put the one up on E-bike Bafang m600?

You are right, they look sweet but are expensive. I've found they are worth the money vs. replacing other pedals more frequently.
Just put in my order... fortunately Jenson USA gave a 15% discount to take some sting out of the price🤟💰
Too bad they dont makeOneUp in shinny silver Id buy a pair
Keep an eye out, we have a review of some really shinny pedals coming soon.
@@GearChaseTube I wish but couldn’t wait I bought the silver Burgtec ones
