Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installing the MKS AR-2 pedals requires standard 9/16" crank threads. To install the EZY adapters, thread them into your crank arms using an 8mm hex wrench. Once the adapter is installed, simply push the pedal into the sleeve and pull the outer collar to lock it into place. Ensure the pedal is fully seated before riding. For care, keep the threads of the EZY system clean and lightly lubricated. The cup and cone bearings can be accessed for cleaning and repacking with fresh bearing grease, which is recommended annually if you ride in wet conditions. Note that this version does not accept EZY Superior accessories; ensure you are using original EZY-compatible components only.
