Based on the same confidence-inspiring platform as OneUp Components' Aluminum Pedal, the OneUp Composite Pedal brings you similar performance with ideal grip, size, and weight, but at less than half the price. DU and cartridge bearing technology delivers easy serviceability, smooth rotation, and lasting durability, while ten removable steel pins packed on each side of the platform ensure maximum grip. Its wider platform design makes for an easy footplant and increases stability, while the slightly contoured shape provides a natural and truly connected feeling underfoot.

Best budget pedal
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I first used these on a demo bike and liked them enough that I got myself a pair. I have used a few budget friendly pedals and these are my favorite so far.

These pedals are lightweight and look great. I really like the shape of them and they grip very well.

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
In my opinion, there's no reason to spend twice as much on a fancy aluminum pedal when these are lighter and just as grippy. I'm constantly striking pedals and i've never had an issue with one breaking. Bearings last a long time and they look new forever.

I was a little skeptical about this pedal at first. I saw other pedals for the same price that had many more 5 star reviews but they did not have the black color in stock while this one did. I took a leap of faith and purchased these ones and I love them. They have an amazing grip on my shoes and are really sweet for pedaling, and they look awesome. They are a little bit bigger than most other pedals but they are lightweight and I have never thought it was a problem. I really love them and am glad that I got them.

Great pedals
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Cheap, colorful, and do their job well. What more do you need?
Carver ShawLightweight, cool colors
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
These are my first flat pedals and I've liked them- lightweight and super grippy.
Mike N.Lightweight and Awesome Price
These pedals are as good or better than my Race Face flats. Super light. Stiff under foot. Priced well so that I can buy another set if I want to.
taylorEmployeeGreat For The Price
Can't say that these are anything that will blow your mind, but they'll get the job done and keep them getting done for a while. Very light, great grip and shape, and a fantastic price for what you're getting.
BOBBY D.Good, nothing that stands out
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I have had Chesters and the cheapo Imriders from Amzn and while these are very nice pedals, I don't see that they are really any better than the Imriders for half the price. I kind of like how the Chesters have a leading edge to them, but these seem to work about as well even without. The reason I wanted to try these is in one online review they recommended them for larger feet, which I have. They are indeed larger than Chesters, but the grip feels the same. Good pedals, same price as Chesters, its just Ford vs Chevy at this point, its all good but neither really pulls ahead in my book.
Zach B.For the price these are great
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
For the price these pedals are fantastic. They grip like to other and weigh very little. You can spend a lot more on nicer looking fancy pedals but for under $50 you can't beat the grip that these offer. The look is kind of take it or leave it and more expensive pedals do look nicer but all in all a great value. Have not tried the raceface chesters but I reckon those are a viable alternative as well.
Austin F.Do not buy imo
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
These pedals offer great grip and are pretty light. I absolutely 100% would recommend against buying these for one reason. Durability is total trash. Mine broke after two pedal strikes with about 2 months of mild use. The pedal strike that broke them was at low speed. I was very surprised to find out this is not something that would be covered under warranty after they state "Nylon composite that holds up to against abuse"... Super disappointed Backcountry or 1UP did not cover this.. You make a product or stock it you should standby it period. Especially if you're going to claim it holds up to abuse.

demo Peds
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have used these on all our demo bikes in the bike shop and have yet to have any problems with a single pair. They are super grippy and you are able to get them off with an allen or a ped wrench.

Cracked
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Love the shape and grip of these guys. Unfortunately they cracked after a couple months use. If you're looking for a budget pedal stick with the RaceFace Chester. They're more durable and take pedal strike abuse much better!
Chris H.good pedals
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I wanted a nice lightweight plastic pedal for commuting. These fit the bill nicely.
My commute is 30 miles round trip with about 7 miles on dirt roads. I wanted a flat pedal because I didn't want to be locked into wearing cycling shoes. I also wanted a plastic pedal since I often will catch a ride home with a friend (no bike rack) and I can slide the bike into the back of his pick up on the pedal. If I had a metal pedal, it would scratch his bed. Lastly, because so much of my commute is on dirt roads, I wanted something with cleats for grip. These have very nice grip on rubber soled shoes.
Price is good and performance is good. What more can you ask for?
Aaron BenderEmployeeGreat Price for a High Performer
Pinkbike recently gave the OneUp Composite high marks, saying:
"If you are looking for a crazy-affordable flat pedal that's lightweight, offers outstanding traction and a relatively low profile, you can't beat these pedals. "

Georgia SEmployeeTake A Beating for a great price
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Can take a beating for a great price. The built-in grip ensures your feet stay firmly planted on the pedals throughout the ride. Large surface area tends to strike rocks along the side of the path, but can barely tell on the pedals themselves. Very happy with the purchase.
SmithhammerDon't bother spending more.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I honestly see no need to spend any more than this on a pedal. The One Up composites are THAT good. Removable/replaceable pins, serviceable, plenty wide platform and a composite material that shrugs off hits much better than any alloy pedal I've used at 2-3 times the price.
AaronCEmployeeStrong, burly, wide and grippy!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These are SUPER aggressive with the pins from factory. I was worried about getting gnarly on this new bike, but you stick like glue on these pedals. They have had a couple powerful rock-bashes and have held up perfectly too. Photo is of the pedal after a really crazy impact and it looks perfect. I'm sure an aluminum one would have bent.
Jason ParrishGreat pedals
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Switched to these from clipless after previously running Shimano MX80 Saint platforms. I honestly considered spending more because I wasn't really sold on the idea of a composite pedal but I'm glad I didn't. These are great, they feel like much higher quality than I expected and are super grippy with five ten shoes and as a bonus they keep looking good after some rock strikes. I'll be buying another set for my other bike.
Eric OlofsonGreat intro platforms
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Bought these for my very first time out on a mountain bike... on a demo bike on the Wasatch Crest Trail. Out of the box, the left pedal had a warped thread (fluke manufacturing defect?) that I had to use a thread file to get it to thread into the crank. Aside from that, these were great. They felt solid and light enough, nice wide platform, and the studs kept my feet firmly in place. I'm sure there are plenty of higher-quality, lighter, etc options out there but if you're looking for an intro or budget pedal, I think these are a pretty solid choice.
