Tell Southern California Forests to Protect Mountain Bike Access!



IMBA is working to prevent trail closures in Southern California's National Forests.


Sign the petition below to let the U.S. Forest Service know that you would like for them to consider a backcountry non-motorized designation in roadless areas that already have mountain bike trails.

HT Components Evo AE-01 Flat Pedals First Impressions

Below you will find some pictures, facts and my first impressions on HT Components Evo AE-01 flat mtb pedals.

I tried to capture a shot of the EVO box. I apologize for the glare.

This is how the high polish silver flats look packaged in the box.

There are 10 replaceable pins per side. For a total of 20 pins per pedal.

What a sweet pedal.

358 Grams for the pair.

Super thin at 11mm.

Extruded CNC machined aluminum body & CNC machined Chromoly spindles.

102mm x 96mm x 11mm

Dual DU bushing & one patent bearing.

HT Components Evo AE-01 Flat Mtb Pedal

Weight: 358 grams for the pair.
Size: 102mm x 96mm x 11mm.
Body: Extruded CNC machined aluminum.
Spindle: CNC machined Chromoly.
Bearings: Dual DU bushing & one patent bearing.
Pins: Replaceable grip pins.
Colors: Black, Red, Silver.
High Polish Colors: Black, Red, Silver.
MSRP: $150


If this does not make you drool then you are simply off your rocker. Haha. What you see here is a pair of high polish silver anodized AE-01 Evo flat pedals from HT Components. I haven't even put these on the freeride test rig yet and I'm already a fan. They are super thin and weigh pretty much nothing. The tube in one of my tires weighs more than the pair of pedals. The grip seems like it will be immense. I can't wait to get these bad boys on the test bike and get to shredding. Be sure to keep an eye out for the full review in the future.

Sram : Brandon Semenuk : Relentless

This is an excellent video of one of my idols. Brandon Semenuk talks about his bike setup and shows you how shredding on a mtb rig is done.


This edit is a mission statement. A declaration. A visual representation of the lethal cocktail Brandon brings to any battle and what he demands from the products he rides. Brandon's brute strength, style, and diverse skill match seamlessly with X0. Brandon Semenuk is Relentless. Brandon Semenuk is X0.
