Components Aluminum Flat Pedals
INSTRUCTIONS
Ensure flange pedal washer and lip seal are assembled with flange side towards
crank. In the following orientation.
Install with 8mm Hex. Torque to 35Nm (25 ft-lbs) Min
NOTE:
- Uninstalled pedals have a minimal axial movement built in that is eliminated when fully install on cranks.
- 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 can be removed.
- Out of the box our pedals have some resistance to free spinning by design. This can be adjusted by adding or removing grease upon disassembly. Free spinning will increase over time and wear of the bushing.
- These pedals are not compatible with crank boots without modification to the crank boots. We recommend removing crankboots before installation.
- We always recommend the use of pedal washers when installing your pedals.

STEP 1: REMOVE PEDAL & FLANGE WASHER
Pull off the flange washer (3) from the end of the axle by hand, with pliers
or flat head screwdriver. You can pry the flange washer (3) off with a
screwdriver in the same way as you would open a paint can.
STEP 2: LOCKRING REMOVAL
Use a cassette lockring tool to remove the Bearing Nut (4). Engage the tool
into the Bearing Nut splines. If available, use a vice to hold the cassette
tool and rotate the pedal to loosen. Alternatively, secure the pedal against a
wooden surface with your hand and loosen the bearing nut with the cassette
tool.
LOOSENING
- Drive Side pedal – Turn wrench clockwise to loosen. (DS lock nut has a reverse thread)
- Non-Drive side pedal – Turn wrench counter clockwise to loosen. (NDS lock nut has a regular thread)
STEP 3: AXLE REMOVAL
Pull axle out by hand. The axle(8) can require a firm tug. If you find it
difficult to pull out the axle from the pedal body, reinstall the pedal on
your crank and pull on the pedal body(5) to separate it from the axle.
STEP 4: CLEANING
Wipe off the old grease from the axle (8), bearing (2) and bushing (10) and
clean out the inside of the pedal body (5).
STEP 5: IDENTIFYING YOUR PEDAL VERSION
V1 Pedal Axles have 3 Micro bearings on the narrow end of the axle.
V2 Pedal Axles have a Brass Bushing on the narrow end of the axle.
See diagram below:
If you Have the 3 micro bearings and washers we recommend getting the
Aluminium Pedal Rebuild Kit:
SP1C0063 and replacing the
micro bearings and washers with the updated brass bushing.
STEP 6: REMOVING BUSHING
To remove the brass bushing (10), use a 8mm hex to hold the axle (8) and a
2.5mm hex to remove the pedal axle bolt (6).
- The drive-side pedal axle bolt (black) has a left hand thread, turn clockwise to loosen.
- The non-drive-side pedal axle bolt (silver) has right hand thread, turn counter-clockwise to loosen.

STEP 7: REMOVING BEARING
To remove the bearing (4) simply slide it off the end of the axle (8).
STEP 8: INSPECTION
Check your brass bushing (10) and axle (8) for wear.
Bearing:
Check your bearings spin smoothly. If they are rough or stiff then we
recommend you replace them.
Bushing:
Check the inside of the bushings for scoring. If they are not smooth we
recommend you replace them.
If you need to replace your bearings or bushings please purchase the this kit:
Aluminium Pedal Rebuild Kit:
SP1C0063
STEP 9: CLEAN AXLE
Check the end of the axle (8) for brass residue from the bushing (10). The tip
should be shiny silver.
If the axle tip has discoloration, scouring or rust, use a scouring pad or
fine emery paper to polish the silver surface. Wipe the axle clean and ensure
there are no metal particles left behind.

---|---
STEP 10: GREASE AXLE
Grease all the outer surfaces of your axle (8). It is most important to grease
the silver surfaces where the bearing (2) and bushing (10) sit.
|
---|---
STEP 11: INSTALL BUSHING AND BEARING, COMPLETE GREASING
Install the bushing (10) and bearing (2) back onto the freshly greased axle
(8). Slide the bearing on by hand. Use an 8mm hex to hold the axle and a 2.5mm
hex to tighten the pedal axle bolt (6). Be sure to select the correct axle
bolt.
- The drive-side pedal axle bolt (black) has a left hand thread, counter-clockwise to tighten.
- The non-drive-side pedal axle bolt (silver) has a right hand thread, turn clockwise to tighten.
Once the bushing, axle bolt and bearing are installed, grease the outer surfaces of both the bearing and bushing.
STEP 12: INSTALL AXLE
Press the axle (8) back into the clean pedal body (5) by hand. If an air lock
is created while pressing in the axle, lightly wiggle the axle to release air
caught within the pedal body.
STEP 13: INSTALL LOCK RING
Engage the cassette tool into the bearing nut (4) and turn by hand at first.
Once threads are in, tighten the bearing nut with your cassette tool, holding
the pedal with a vice or on a piece of wood with your hand. Take care not to
overtighten the bearing nut. If the axle (8) is not rotating smoothly or if it
feels gritty, lightly tap on the end of the axle with a mallet. If it still
feels gritty, try backing off the bearing nut slightly.
- Drive-side pedal bearing nut has a reverse thread – Turn counterclockwise to tighten.
- Non-drive-side pedal bearing nut has a regular thread – Turn clockwise to tighten.

STEP 14: INSTALL FLANGE WASHER
Clean or replace the pedal seal (7) and push it back onto the pedal flange
washer (3). The lip of the pedal seal should face the bearing (2), with the
flange facing outward towards the crank arm. Push the flange washer into place
on the axle (8) by hand.
STEP 15: INSTALL PEDAL
Lightly grease the pedal threads. Using your 8mm hex tool, slowly thread the
pedal into the crank. Ensure it is threading in easily and is straight. Be
careful not to cross the threads, as you will damage your crank and pedal. If
it is difficult to install, do not force it, remove the pedal and try again.
Note:
The OneUp Aluminum pedals should spin freely after freshly servicing. If your
pedals still feel stiff or gritty after servicing, check that the pedal body
is not binding on the crank arm. If you can not see a gap between the crank
arm and pedal body we recommend you add a pedal washer. Do not run 2 or more
pedal washers. OneUp Aluminium pedals are not compatible with crank boots
unless you trim them to clear the pedal body.
Congratulations, you have now successfully serviced your Pedals.
NOW GO RIDE!
