HT Components AE03 Flat Pedals
Ultra-Thin Design. Maximum Grip. Built for Aggressive Trail Riding.
The HT Components AE03 Flat Pedals are designed for riders who want excellent grip, improved ground clearance and a direct connection with their bike. Their ultra-thin 11mm profile places your feet closer to the pedal axle, creating a stable and controlled feel while reducing the chance of pedal strikes on technical terrain.
A large concave platform and 10 replaceable pins per side help keep your feet securely positioned through rough descents, technical climbs and fast trail sections. CNC-machined aluminium construction and HT’s EVO+ bearing system provide the strength and reliability needed for regular trail, enduro and gravity riding.
Ultra-Thin for Better Clearance
At just 11mm thick, the AE03 provides excellent clearance over rocks, roots and deep trail ruts. The low-profile design also places your feet closer to the axle, helping create a stable and responsive connection with the bike.
Secure, Adjustable Grip
The concave platform naturally guides your feet towards the centre of the pedals, while 10 replaceable pins on each side provide dependable traction. This combination helps maintain secure foot placement without sacrificing the freedom to reposition when required.
The pedals also include 20 spare pins, making it easy to replace damaged or worn pins and maintain consistent grip.
Support Where You Need It
Measuring 102 × 96mm, the platform provides a supportive base without feeling unnecessarily bulky. Its shape distributes pressure across your shoes and helps reduce unwanted foot movement over rough terrain.
CNC-Machined Aluminium Construction
The AE03 body is precision-machined from extruded aluminium for an excellent balance of strength and low weight. At 352g per pair, the pedals remain light enough for all-day trail riding while being robust enough for demanding enduro and gravity use.
EVO+ Bearing System
HT’s EVO+ bearing system combines sealed bearings with IGUS bushings for smooth rotation and long-term reliability. The protected design helps keep dirt and moisture away from the internal components, reducing maintenance and supporting consistent performance.
