Mountain Bike component manufacturer, Burgtec, out of UK launched the Burgtec Penthouse Flat MK5 B-Rage Edition platform pedals in the middle of the year. They are designed with Brage Vestavik, one of my favourite freeride mountain bikers, but would be perfect for the BMX race track too.

I got to check some out up close and personal on the weekend. They are a high end pedal with a price tag to match, which won’t suit everyone but they are a super grippy, light weight, low profile, large platform pedal loaded with features and worth a look.

Manufacturer’s Description

Making Flat Pedals is our absolute favourite. It was the first product Burgtec ever made over 20 years ago and where the love started. The Brage Vestavik pedal was a new challenge, we thought we knew everything, but it turns out you can always learn more.

The B-Rage Edition adds an extra 12mm of length front to back, this gives us a stomping 112mm x 102mm platform guaranteeing support for the biggest of hits.

Centre pins weren’t something we’d done since the OG Penthouse MK1 20 years ago. Brage felt this larger platform needed extra support in the middle so we added a pad with 3 extra pins for even more grip. No limitations. 55ft Jah Drop approved.
