Just announced, Race Face has introduced the new budget-friendly Ride series pedal to their lineup, while also updating their popular Chester pedal for those searching for more traction. Read on for details on both, plus a look at all of the available colours…

It’s no secret that Race Face makes some impressive bike components. And their growing line of flat pedals is no different, offering great performance at competitive prices. Logan put his set of Atlas pedals through the wringer during his 1,500-mile Trans-Uganda trip, and had many positive things to say about them. Read more about those and other flat pedals for bikepacking in our guide here.

Race Face just announced a new pedal to their lineup, the Ride pedal, which looks to be a cost-effective option to those riding flats who aren’t in need of metal traction pins. The Chester pedal, which shares similar characteristics to the Ride but offers replaceable pins, has been updated as well. Check out some of the specs below, including the rainbow of colours that might just be the finishing touch to your latest build…

Race Face Ride Pedal

The Ride pedal features a slim nylon composite platform, available in a set of nine vibrant colour options and offers a lightweight concave design for serious performance. Molded pins give you all the grip you need without the risk of damaging your shoes or shins. Its durable Cro-Mo steel axle features a standard 9/16” pedal thread and serviceable internal parts. Race Face also offers a two-year warranty on the Ride pedal, and from our experience, will go above and beyond to keep their customers happy.
