"At 26.8mm total thickness, these pedals are undeniably low profile. The platform measures 75mm x 68mm, with a 55mm stance width (from the center of the binding to the crank face). That's a very nice modern XC footprint, supportive enough under a stiff race shoe, without adding unnecessary bulk."
"Rather than relying on an off-the-shelf system, OneUp built a custom SPD-compatible binding mechanism for the XC Clips, but it's very SPD. The goal: a tighter cleat interface, a wider range of retention adjustment, and consistent engagement and release."
"The pedal body itself is minimalist but doesn't feel fragile. It's clearly designed for efficiency, not abuse, but it doesn't come across as delicate. I've had lots of early (and muddy) ride time on them, and the initial impression is strong."
OneUp's new XC Clip Pedals are engineered for cross-country, marathon, and gravel riding with a claimed weight of 303g per pair and a thin 26.8mm profile, making them the thinnest dual-sided MTB clip pedals available. The pedals feature a 75mm x 68mm platform with a 55mm stance width, providing modern XC geometry that balances support and minimal bulk. Rather than using standard SPD components, OneUp developed a custom SPD-compatible binding mechanism designed for a tighter cleat interface, wider retention adjustment range, and consistent engagement and release. Early ride impressions highlight excellent feedback, satisfying click engagement, and thoughtful design execution, though long-term durability of bushings and bearings requires further testing.
