I found some GREAT lollipop style clipless bike pedals on AliExpress last year, so let’s check them out!!!

Over the years I’ve tried loads of different pedals and pedal systems on my carbon road bike. I started out on Shimano SPD-SL, then moved over to Look Keo, but last year I found a set of clipless lollipop pedals on AliExpress and had to check them out.

In general, when most people think of clipless lollipop style pedals, they think of the brand called SpeedPlay. They are by all accounts a fantastic pedal system, and many people swear by them, but they can be quite expensive, with the most basic version costing around £150 ($200) new. So, when I found these lollipop pedals on AliExpress, I was really excited to try them out.

They come in two flavours. Your basic steel axle variety, and a slightly more expensive titanium alloy version. I’ve put just over 3500km on my set and in my opinion, they are a really great set of pedals. Lightweight, durable, easy to use, highly adjustable cleats, and fantastic value!

In this video, I’ll review these pedals in detail, compare them to some other pedal systems I’ve tried in the past, and give you my overall verdict.

Got any questions or comments, stick them below 👇 and I'll try and get back to as many of you as I can!

About Trace Velo:
I love cycling, and I love getting pro cycling kit for less. If it’s cheap, from China, and made of carbon fibre, I’m interested!
