FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the PA03A pedals?

The primary benefit is the combination of a super-slim profile, lightweight construction, and exceptional grip provided by the in-mould grips and replaceable pins, enhancing rider confidence and control.

Are the grip pins replaceable?

Yes, the PA03A pedals come with 8 replaceable steel grip pins per side, allowing you to maintain or adjust traction as needed.

What material is the pedal body made of?

The pedal body is made of a glass-reinforced nylon composite material, which contributes to its lightweight and durable nature.

What is the weight of the PA03A pedals?

The pair of HT Components PA03A pedals weighs approximately 350g.

How do I install these pedals?

They use a standard 9/16" thread and can be installed using a pedal wrench. Remember the left pedal has a reverse thread (tightens counter-clockwise).

Can I use these pedals for road cycling?

While they offer great grip, they are primarily designed for mountain biking due to their platform style and pin configuration. For road cycling, different pedal systems are generally preferred.

What maintenance is required?

Regular cleaning with mild soap and water is recommended. Periodically check and replace worn grip pins to maintain optimal grip. The sealed bearing system is low-maintenance.

Troubleshooting

Pedal creaking

Ensure pedals are correctly installed and tightened onto the crank arms. Apply a small amount of grease to the pedal threads before installation. Check if pins are loose and tighten if necessary.

Reduced grip

Clean the pedal body and pins thoroughly. Inspect grip pins for wear and replace any damaged or dull pins.

Stiff pedal rotation

This may indicate an issue with the internal bearings. Clean the pedal exterior. If stiffness persists, professional service or replacement of the bearing/bush system might be needed.

Damaged pedal body

Inspect the composite body for cracks or significant damage. While durable, extreme impacts can cause damage. If structural integrity is compromised, pedal replacement is recommended for safety.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight design reduces overall bike weight.
  • Large platform offers excellent foot support.
  • Replaceable grip pins allow for customized traction.
  • Durable composite body withstands trail abuse.
  • Slim profile minimizes pedal strike risk.

Cons

  • Composite body may be less durable than metal under severe impacts.
  • Primarily designed for mountain biking; may not suit all disciplines.
  • Requires periodic pin replacement for optimal grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The HT Components PA03A pedals use a standard 9/16" thread size, compatible with virtually all modern bicycle crank arms. Ensure you use the correct pedal wrench for installation. Remember that the left pedal has a reverse thread (loosens clockwise).

Compatibility: These pedals are universally compatible with any bicycle featuring standard crankset threads.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Clean the pedals with mild soap and water. Avoid high-pressure washing directly at the bearings.
  2. Pin Maintenance: Periodically check the grip pins. Replace any worn or damaged pins using a standard hex key (usually 3mm or 4mm) to maintain optimal grip.
  3. Bearing Service: While the sealed bearing system is low maintenance, if you notice stiffness or play, professional servicing or replacement of the bearing system may be required.
