Why We Like The Rally XC Dual-Sided Power Meter Pedals
We're training harder to go faster on race day with the Garmin Rally XC Dual-Sided Power Meter Pedals installed on our favorite bikes. The pedals are easy as ever to swap, so we're investing in some good shoes and swapping this bit of tech between our mountain, cross, and road bikes this upcoming training season. The dual power meter pedals accurately measure power from both legs, giving us a strong and accurate base to jot down ever-increasing numbers.

Great pedals!
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I've been using them with a Garmin 1030 head unit and everything has gone smoothly. They show up within a second or two of turning on the Garmin and I'm asked to hit the calibrate button. A few seconds later, it's ready to go. I feel like the connectivity is a little less fussy than the Stages crank arms I've used before. And I do like that if I upgrade my bike, I can just move these pedals over to the new bike in a few minutes. As far as how they perform as pedals... I guess I'm not that picky? You clip in, they go around... what's not to like?

Excellent pedals

I've had these pedals for a couple of years now. I've replaced the batteries once, and overall have no complaints. They're accurate, reliable, and durable. The only issue I ran into is that the profile is a little larger than a regular XC SPD pedal, on my MTB, I have had some pedal strikes due to the larger profile. Though, after getting used to them, it was able to be corrected through improved technique. If nothing else this did help me feel confident in their durability.

Love these Pedals

Been riding these well over a year now. Put them on my mountain bike so I could compare workouts with my road bike. They have been foolproof. I have changed the batteries once in since I have owned them. They sync right up with my Wahoo Roam computer once I have started the ride. Sometimes it takes a minute, but it syncs.

Do NOT BUY. Move along to another product -- your wallet and sanity will thank you!! I always feel weird about feeling the need to establish bona fides, but I'm a moderately experienced road/gravel/mountain cyclist who has been riding consistently for 15+ years with a number of endurance/stage races under my belt. I normally stray away from the super techy gear but wanted to start layering more power work into my workouts, so I decided to take the plunge into power pedals. Alright, weirdness over. I originally purchased these pedals a little over a year ago. the FIRST set had to be returned because the inner wirings were completely disconnected from the pedal body so the pedals would not turn on. Strike 1 but, hey, things happen sometimes at the factory. My Gearhead was AWESOME and helped me with the return and got another set in my hands later that week. The second set worked great for about a month, then quickly starting having connectivity issues (Strike 2). I had to add 10-15 minutes the front of every ride because I'd spend that long or longer spinning the pedals in my garage like an idiot trying to get them to connect. I wore the troubleshooting guide OUT! I changed batteries, reset my bluetooth, reset my phone, uninstalled and re-installed the Garmin Connect app so many times Apple thought I was a victim of identity theft. In total they probably worked about 40% of the time. Sometimes they'd connect, and then disconnect halfway through the ride and refuse to re-connect (inFURIATING during wattage workouts). The pedals eventually gave up completely, but my dogged pursuit of trying to get them to work bit me...hard. I worked on them past the warranty date (struck out looking). So now since they no longer work, I can choose to keep them on my bike as a normal set of (albeit heavier) pedals, or keep them on my mantle as a shrine to a company I wanted to keep loving so much...
