SENSUS Pedals Crüe Steel | Sabbath Black
Shreeding Forever!
Yes, this name is a homage to the American band Mötley Crüe. However, the Crüe pedal is by no means just a heap of metal thrown together - in accordance with the philosophy of the SENSUS crew, it is the best flat pedal in the world. Designed and put through its paces by freeride legends like Cam Zink, Kyle Strait and Kurt Sorge. The focus was on the development of a light and robust flat pedal so that you didn't have to give away an inch of airtime or lose control. Furthermore, the shape of the Crüe pedal in combination with the generated grip should create a balanced pedal feel. Ultimately, this pedal had to impress with its high durability and, of course, be easy to maintain. After 3 years of intensive development and testing, the SENSUS crew agreed that they had developed the best flat pedal in the world.
concave shape
The Crüe pedal is concave in all directions. The total concavity from the highest to the lowest point of the pedal is 6mm. In conjunction with a pedal area of 117 mm x 105 mm, this results in the best balance between grip and driving experience. With a height of 17 mm (without pins) it has a very slim design. The asymmetrical pedal body offers more space and stability in the front area of the foot. In addition, the front edges of the pedal have been bevelled. This is to ensure that in the event of a fall you will be diverted from the rock instead of getting stuck on it.
Pin to Axle Ratio
The Pin-To-Axle (PTA) ratio is a more meaningful metric for evaluating a pedal's performance than simply focusing on pedal area and pin size alone. The PTA value indicates the distance of the furthest pin from where the pedal axle meets the crank arm. According to this measurement, the Crüe pedal has a PTA value of 113 mm, one of the highest measured for current flat pedals.
