Flat pedal pins advise

Post by Adventurer »

You would think this is easy. Might be just me.

I’ve got a pair of crankbrothers double shot 3 pedals.
Clip one side flat the other. I’m finding the pins a bit too short.

Looking for the longer 10mm ones but they appear not easy to get hold off.

Also not sure if I have to go with the crankbrothers 50/50 pins or I can go with any other makers pins that are easier to get hold off.


So does anyone know if any other company’s pins will work with crankbrothers pedals?

Most old fashioned Hardwear stores will stock Allen bolts to do what you want ,it's what I use on nukeproof pedals , if your Midlands based nutters on cuckoo bridge Birmingham have every size bolt /thread combination you can think of ,think it cost me £3.50 to replace all my pins with stainless ones

They're just grub screws aren't they? Find out what thread they are, then get some of whatever length you want. SO yeah, hardware store, bearing supplier, ebay, accu (https://www.accu.co.uk/en/14-cup-point-set-screws ), that sort of place should have some.

Ok, and how do I find out the thread type?

They'll certainly be metric - either M3 or M4 with a very slim chance of being M5.
