AIR1 FLAT PEDAL
The design of this mountain bike pedal was inspired by the aspiration to rival clipless pedals. Our aim was to ensure that riders establish a seamless and secure connection with their bike, eliminating any possibility of slippage allowing riders to confidently conquer anything whether its at the bike park, dirt jumps, pump track, bmx track or your local trails.
RACEWAY HANDLABAR
We wanted to create a mountain bike handlebar that could endure the most powerful impacts while also providing unparalleled comfort for a great value. We meticulously balanced the level of rigidity to ensure utmost accuracy, while incorporating just the right amount of flexibility to ensure your hands remain comfortable throughout the day.
Our Goal
Our ultimate aim for the TACTIC AIR1 was to create the absolute best pair of mountain bike pedals. We devoted hundreds of hours to ensure that this pedal met our expectations of durability and excellent grip. In addition to our testing, the AIR1 flat pedals were also put to the test in EFBE's facility in Waltrop, Germany, to ensure that they are certified for gravity riding. Generally, the thinnest mountain bike flat pedals on the market do not offer much pedal grip because the body of the pedal is flat and does not actually have a concave platform reducing the amount of pressure on the pedal pins. Some brands may assert that the concave feel is created by tall pins at the front and rear and small pins in the middle, the actual difference is in the pedal platform design.
Better Foot Placement, Better Riding
We believe pedals are one of the most important components on a bicycle for any riding style, because it's one of two points that connects you to the bike. Having a pedal with a large platform and solid grip allows you to not only have a better foot position but also increases your ability to ride faster and become more comfortable on the bike while on technical and rough terrain. Not to mention we have the only pedal that carries a protection system to keep your pedals looking new.
Smooth Performance
High load IGUS® bushings and sealed cartridge bearings for smooth performance. Replacement parts are available as well allowing the AIR1 pedal to be fully rebuildable. Weight distribution has been perfected to reduce bearing blowout.
Perfected Body Shape
This large pedal body along with the front and rear edges has been perfected to not only enhance your riding ability but also designed to deflect rocks to reduce harsh pedal strikes.
custom designed pedal axle
Heat-treated 4140 Cr-Mo spindle for increased strength and durability. Our own custom designed axle assembly allows the pedal to flex and absorb small vibrations.
Products we love
Every product we sell are products all of team Tactic actually likes riding. Thousands of hours have been put into our high end concave pedals and quadruple butted bars so they reach our standard of comfort and style. The Tactic AIR1 pedals provide incredible grip for all shoe sizes, (size 7 to 17 with @nrml_mtber) with nine traction pins per side perfectly placed around the pedal. For many riders these pedals give the freedom of feeling locked in without actually being locked like clipless pedals.
