Renthal Revo-DHC Downhill MTB Clip Pedals with Adjustable Tension & SPD Compatibility

The Renthal Revo-DHC Clip Pedals redefine downhill racing by merging the best features of flat pedals and clip pedals into one revolutionary design. With an extra-large 104 x 111mm forged 6061 aluminium body, these pedals provide unmatched support and control, ensuring every rider experiences exceptional feedback and pedalling efficiency during intense MTB sessions. Their sleek, CNC-machined finish not only reduces weight but also improves durability by allowing the pedal to slide smoothly over rocks instead of catching on them.

One of the standout features of the Revo-DHC is the proprietary Renthal binding system, designed for easy entry and a highly adjustable range of spring tension. This means you can customize the pedal’s grip to suit your riding style perfectly, all while enjoying full SPD compatibility. The adjustable pin height, ranging from 1.5mm to 5.5mm, ensures a wide range of shoe compatibility, making these pedals versatile for various footwear preferences.

Durability and maintenance ease are at the core of the Revo-DHC’s design. Equipped with a patent-pending axle system, these pedals allow for full home servicing using common tools, so you can keep your pedals in top condition without hassle. The internal construction combines a wide Igus bushing with three cartridge bearings mounted outboard for superior protection against rock strikes and wear. This robust system guarantees long-lasting performance, even under the most demanding downhill conditions.
