crankbrothers Candy 3

Introducing the iconic Candy 3 bike pedal from Crankbrothers. This trailblazing design is the brainchild of founders Carl and Frank, brought to life out of frustration with muddy, inaccessible pedals. With the ethos that simplicity often equals brilliance, they constructed a pedal system with a minimal number of moving parts - only two, hinging on a spring. This system developed into what we now know and love as the Candy pedal.

The Candy 3 pedal is lauded for its diversity. A multifaceted gear that has been sighted everywhere from off-trail terrains, competitive cyclocross races to the humble commuter bike. Its protective cage surrounding the 4 point engagement system not only offers the rider a sense of certainty but also provides a larger pedal body surface area - an excellent alternative to the eggbeater pedal.

Main features include:

• Weight: Light as a feather at 304g per pair
• Spindle: Forged from robust scm435 chromoly steel
• Body: Exceptionally crafted 2 piece machined aluminium
• Wings: Durable Cast Steel
• Spring: 300 series stainless steel
• Bearings: Needle inner, cartridge outer
• Maximum rider weight: Absolutely no restrictions
• Colour options: Black/Silver, Blue/Silver or Red/Silver

In addition, each Candy 3 pedal comes with premium brass cleats and shims, boasting a release angle of 15° to 20°, and the backup of a 5-year warranty.

You can also customise your pedal using Crankbrothers tread contact sleeves. These come with three different thicknesses, allowing you to maintain optimum contact between your shoes and the pedal axle as the tread wears down. Furthermore, the Candy 3, like all Crankbrothers’ products, is entirely serviceable with a level 3/11 service kit. Servicing is quick and straightforward, needing no special tools - just a flathead screwdriver, socket wrench, and 8mm Allen key. Keep your pedals clean, greased, and regularly inspected for wear to ensure a consistently top-notch performance.
