Race Face adds a new, wider Aeffect R alloy all-mountain flat pedal for riders looking for more grip to conquer more technical trails. With a 25% larger platform, thinner stack, and more open design, the new Aeffect R pedals are actually even tougher than ever, adding a new lifetime warranty peace of mind, but not a lot of extra weight…
Race Face Aeffect R wide platform pedals
The new flat pedals join Race Face’s other Aeffect high-performance, high-value spec components built for more aggressive trail, all-mountain, and enduro riding. Now claiming the widest aluminum body in their class, the new Aeffect Rs promise that perfect blend of ultimate grip in any terrain, lightweight, and trusted durability.
“With a fresh design and larger platform, the Aeffect R pedal follows the evolution of modern trail bikes and down-country rigs, providing you a more sure-footed, durable pedal to match your single-track endeavors.”
Tech details
The Aeffect R pedals get a big 110mm x 115mm platform (up from 101x100mm on the original Aeffect), and a 15.5mm thick are 1.4mm thinner, too. The new flat pedals spin on a tough chromoly steel axle, with an inner bushing and outer sealed bearing, and are user-serviceable.
The 6000-series alloy body gets 10 replaceable top-loaded grub screw style traction pins per side, so you can dial in how much grip you want. But the pedal body is also thinner to maximize clearance over obstacles, and more open to better clear mud & debris.
Saying bigger is better, Race Face is also backing the new 440g pedals with a Lifetime Warranty.
