Crankbrothers Candy 3 Pedals

The Crankbrothers Candy 3 Clip-In Pedals are built for riders seeking the perfect balance of lightweight performance, trail-ready durability, and dependable engagement across gravel, cross-country, and trail riding disciplines. Combining a premium aluminum platform with Crankbrothers' proven clipless system, the Candy 3 delivers enhanced stability, reliable mud shedding, and smooth entry and exit in all riding conditions.

At the center of the design is a durable 6061-T6 aluminum body paired with robust 17-4PH stainless steel wings. This construction provides long-lasting strength while maintaining a lightweight feel that appeals to performance-oriented riders. The compact platform offers greater support and confidence than minimalist clipless pedals, creating a stable connection between rider and bike on rough terrain and technical trails.

Crankbrothers' signature four-sided entry system allows riders to clip in quickly from virtually any angle, eliminating the need to position the pedal before engagement. Whether navigating tight singletrack, accelerating out of corners, or remounting during a gravel event, the intuitive design ensures fast, reliable entry. The open architecture also excels at shedding mud and debris, helping maintain consistent pedal performance in wet and challenging conditions.

The ribbed pedal body enhances grip when unclipped, while compatibility with Crankbrothers' optional Snap-On Traction Pads allows riders to further refine the shoe-to-pedal interface for a customized feel and improved control. Included premium brass cleats provide 6 degrees of float with selectable 15- or 20-degree release angles, allowing riders to tailor engagement and release characteristics to their preferences.

Internally, the Candy 3 features a premium bearing system consisting of an Igus LL-glide inner bearing and an Enduro MAX cartridge outer bearing. Combined with a double-seal system, forged chromoly steel spindle, stainless steel spring, and durable hex alloy endcap, the pedal is engineered for smooth performance and long service life.

Weighing 340 grams per pair and backed by a five-year warranty, the Candy 3 is a versatile clipless pedal designed to handle everything from competitive gravel racing to demanding trail adventures.

The Crankbrothers Candy 3 Clip-In Pedals are durable, lightweight performance pedals that combine four-sided entry, customizable engagement, and trail-proven reliability for gravel, XC, and trail riding.
