As a double amputee, I absolutely love my Remtechs. They’ve been awesome. Very similar feel to SPD’s with multi-angle cleats but a much easier to hit “sweet spot” to be connected.
I've ridden clipless for years and never thought I needed to change but tried Magped last year and never looked back. They are an absolute gamechanger. The freedom of flats with security of clipless. I dont know why more people aren't talking about them either, so good!!
@@snek9353 for the Hustle Labs I’ve pulled on them pretty hard when pedaling and I w have not come off. The only times they have come off on rides is when my foot wasn’t fully on the pedal so the magnet wasn’t fully seating with the shoe plate. By nature these won’t be has secure as clips but again, you’re getting the best of both worlds so there are compromises.
Remtech is worth the wait! I've been riding mine for 2+ years now and I'm not looking back! The float is kind to my 62 year old knees but more importantly, they release in a way that is a more natural movement. You roll off rather than swinging your ankle out. I throw down a lot of torque and I have found that there is less unintentional disengagement than my Mallets. (BTW, float can be reduced by using their long pins).
I've tried both the Magpeds and the Remtechs, but ultimately went back to flats. The Magpeds felt like they didn't grip enough while the Remtechs were almost too strong. I couldn't adjust my foot very well with them. I'm attempting, off and on, to go clipless; but, like you, I'm of the age where crashing during the learning process isn't a real hoot. Not to mention the knee and hip twisting that goes on. I think if I was doing more techy or hardcore DH stuff I'd give the magnetic pedals another look. But I've managed to stop lacerating my shins with my flats, so I'll stick with them for now.
I rode clipless for years until I moved to where the trails were far more technical. After a few crashes that could have been easily avoided had I been running flats, I switched to flats.
I really like clip-less pedals for the connection and control while riding. I swapped to flats after a couple of small accidents because I could not disconnect from the clips. Not a good situation!!! Consequently I ride flats for the safety while riding off-road trails. Much safer and easier to bail out. I'll have to give magnetics a try.
Thank you for talking about these. I've been a bit reticent to spend the cash to try them out, partly because I don't know anyone who rides the things so I didn't really have a trusted source.
This is the comparison I've been waiting for! My only complaint with the MagPeds is the magnet position and noises. I've been curious if the RemTechs solved this.
Yeah I don’t have any noises but I have no compression on the magnet pads that puts them closer to the plate on my shoes! And the longer pins only in the front! I also have the locator plate covers! MagPeds
I was having all the same things going on with my feet moving around way too much. My friend let me use his spare set on Hustles and that has all gone away, just waiting for me to get my own now.
I have them both, MagPed (but sport ones, with strongest magnet) , and I have Avery (2nd edition, just couple months ago got them).. I like them both...
@@midlifeshredder I have actually solved clicking on the left one.. Never on the right pedal... But in the meantime, spindle on the right pedal needed to be serviced so now I took them both to my mechanic for bearing checkup, greasing and whatever he does.. I ride them exclusively on FiveTen Hellcat shoes. I have tried on other ones like Northwave but it seem they work the best with 5-10... To eliminate clicking I have fiddled a lot with height and position and still managed to get only one correct.. 🙄
Why??? Because they've been out of stock for a LONG time. Their website says, "You all are our top priority, and we will have pedal availability in the Summer of 2023." It's September and no sign of availability anytime soon. 😢
What's your idea? I have been running SPD's for the last 32 years but need a change. Looking at these magnetic pedals. I have 20 years shop and racing experience. My future will be focused on nee technology to help cyclist.
@@midlifeshredder at some point I want to give these magnetic pedals a shot. Central pa is full of rocky terrain and clipless is a no for me. A used set would be nice to give these a go 🤙🏻
@@Sunshine-wn5ev Hustle Labs offers a 30 day money back deal as long as they're not damaged. A good way to try them out on some green trails to see if you like them.
As an amputee rider ( above knee)these pedals have been a game changer and I doubt I'd still be riding without them - They are brilliant pedals !
Wow, never thought about that. Awesome! 🤙🏼
Do you have Instagram? Would like to connect.

That is awesome! It’s so great when innovation benefits everyone! 👊🏼

I’ve started to see more videos on them so the word is getting out. 🤙🏼
Can you pull on them as hard as you can on clipless?

Good point on the pins. I have t tried the longer ones. They feel good right out of the box. 🤙🏼
Getting a shoe with a longer cleat box and setting the metal plate height is also key to a good experience. Really like my Hustle Lab pedals.
Make sure to grease the Enduros regularly (depending on your use profile). It's a day and night experience after re-greaseing a dry pedal.

Those Remtechs are strong but I've gotten use to them! 🤙🏼
I've had the Remtechs for 2 years now. Best pedals ever!

Definitely the "in-between" pedal imo!

Now you do! 🤙🏼

If you can get a pair you won’t be disappointed!

I want to like the Magpeds but that dang clicking noise drives me crazy! Even the v2 has the same issue. But I love how light weight they are.

@@IvanPrskalo Cool, yeah, I've fiddled alot with them as well. But the Hustle Labs I've done no fiddling with and they just work!
Thanks for sharing! 🤘🤠🤘 #rideabove
What's the NM stregngth on the Hustle pedals? Did you try the extra strength metal plate on the Magpeds?
I don’t think they give those specs. But yes, I did use the strongest metal plates with the Magpeds.
Some guy tested with a 60lbs dumbbell and they held it up.
Why??? Because they've been out of stock for a LONG time. Their website says, "You all are our top priority, and we will have pedal availability in the Summer of 2023." It's September and no sign of availability anytime soon. 😢
Smaller companies are still struggling for supply it seems. ☹️
I'd really love to try out the remtech's but i've been waiting 6 months+ for them to come into stock
Yep, the unfortunate downside to trying them. But hopefully they will come soon!
ME TOO
can you add the link to the remtechs, can't find where to buy them...

Is it possible to lift the bike with these pedals while riding?
Absolutely. Just know, these aren’t clips so the amount of pull force is the X factor.
any one want to help develop a special peddle not been done before?

750 grams is a ton of weight for a pedal set. Yikes
It is but I honestly don’t notice the extra weight.

seems super gimmicky. what is a magnet gonna do?

I love my gimmick’s best mountains bike gimmick I’ve found!
