Full details
The DMR V6 Plastic Pedal in Clear is designed for mountain bikers, trail riders, and dirt jumpers seeking reliable grip and a robust platform. Its key benefit lies in the aggressive moulded pins and concave design that ensure excellent foot security in demanding conditions. A potential caveat is its non-serviceable design, meaning parts cannot be individually replaced if worn.

FAQs
Are these pedals serviceable?
No, the DMR V6 Plastic Pedals have a non-serviceable design. This means individual components like bearings or pins cannot be taken apart or replaced.
What is the weight of the DMR V6 pedals?
The DMR V6 Plastic Pedals weigh approximately 327g per pair.
What size are the pedals?
The platform dimensions are 97mm x 102mm.
Can I replace the grip pins?
No, the grip pins on the V6 pedals are moulded into the Nylon body and cannot be replaced individually. If the pins wear down, the pedals will need to be replaced.
What torque should I use when installing the pedals?
The recommended torque setting for all DMR Bikes pedal ranges, including the V6, is 40 - 55Nm.
What type of riding are these pedals best suited for?
These pedals are ideal for Mountain Biking, Trail riding, Dirt Jumping, and Street riding due to their durable Nylon construction, concave shape, and aggressive moulded pins for grip.
How should I clean my V6 pedals?
Clean the pedals using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using high-pressure washers, which can force water and dirt into the pedal body.
Troubleshooting
Pedal spins freely or feels loose
Ensure the pedal is correctly threaded into the crank arm and tightened to the recommended torque (40-55Nm). Check for damage to the pedal threads or crank arm threads.
Grip feels reduced
Clean the pedals thoroughly to remove mud and debris. If the moulded pins show significant wear, consider replacing the pedals as they are non-serviceable.
Creaking noise from pedal area
Confirm pedals are torqued correctly. A small amount of grease on the crank arm threads can sometimes resolve creaking. If the noise persists, it may indicate internal wear within the pedal's DU bushing system, requiring replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your crank arms are clean and free of debris where the pedals will thread in.
- Identify the left (L) and right (R) pedals. The 'L' pedal threads counter-clockwise into the left crank arm, and the 'R' pedal threads clockwise into the right crank arm.
- Apply a small amount of grease to the pedal threads.
- Thread the pedals in by hand initially to avoid cross-threading.
- Once hand-tight, use a pedal wrench or Allen key (depending on your pedal's axle type) to tighten securely. The recommended torque setting for all DMR Bikes pedals is 40 - 55Nm.
Compatibility:
- These pedals use a standard 9/16" thread, compatible with most modern bicycle crank arms.
Care:
- Due to the non-serviceable design, extensive maintenance is not required.
- Clean the pedals with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid high-pressure washing.
- Periodically check that the pedals are securely tightened to the crank arms.
- Inspect the moulded pins for wear; if grip becomes compromised due to pin wear, pedal replacement may be necessary.
