Product news: The pedals from the Californians from Crank Brothers are striking. Because of their design and because of their robust and extremely popular click mechanism. In addition to clipless pedals, flat pedals are now one of the core competencies of the US manufacturer and with the Double Shot model series, an attempt is made to combine the advantages of both types of pedals in one combination pedal. The new Crank Brothers Double Shot 1 complements the existing models with an affordable entry.
