HT X3 Pedals Product Overview The HT X3 are BMX race-specific clipless pedals developed with input from professional riders to handle the unique demands of gate starts, jumps, and aggressive power transfer. Featuring CNC-machined aluminum bodies and chromoly spindles with sealed bearings and dual IGUS bushings, these pedals use HT's proprietary X2/X1/X1F/X1E cleat system designed for secure engagement during hard accelerations while providing controlled float for foot adjustment. The platform design includes replaceable grip pins and optional front plates for additional traction when unclipped. Key Features BMX Race-Specific Design – Engineered for high-impact racing use with reinforced engagement mechanism that resists unintentional unclipping during gate starts, jumps, and hard pedaling Controlled Float System – Allows foot position adjustment while clipped in without accidental release, letting riders fine-tune positioning mid-race while maintaining secure connection CNC-Machined Aluminum Body – Extruded and machined construction provides strength and durability while keeping weight low for racing applications Chromoly Spindle – CNC-machined cr-moly steel axle handles pedaling loads and impact forces without bending Sealed Bearings with Dual IGUS Bushings – Sealed bearing system with two IGUS bushings reduces friction, improves durability, and extends service life Replaceable Grip Pins – Integrated pins provide traction for shoe contact before clipping in or when riding unclipped HT Exclusive Cleat System – Compatible with X2, X1, X1F, and X1E cleats for customization of engagement tension and release characteristics Optional Front Plates – Includes front plates for additional platform support and grip (weight listed with front plates installed) Technical Specifications Body Material: Extruded and CNC-machined aluminum Spindle Material: CNC-machined chromoly steel Bearing System: Sealed bearings with 2 x IGUS bushings Cleat Compatibility: HT X2, X1, X1F, X1E (HT proprietary system) Platform Pins: Replaceable grip pins Dimensions: 85mm x 90mm x 14mm (length x width x height) Weight (Pedals): 476g per pair (with front plates) Weight (Cleats): 64g per pair Pedal Type: Clipless Size Category: Pro Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases Compatibility Requirements: Requires HT-compatible cleats (X2, X1, X1F, or X1E) and cycling shoes with two-bolt cleat mounting patterns. Not compatible with SPD, Look, or other clipless systems. Verify your shoes have compatible cleat mounting before purchasing. Designed specifically for competitive BMX racing where reliable clipping engagement and controlled release are critical. The stiffer engagement feel and float characteristics suit riders who need secure connection during explosive gate starts and hard sprints but want foot adjustment capability without unintentional release. The sealed bearing system with dual IGUS bushings and durable construction handle the repeated high-impact loads of jumps and rough tracks. The optional front plates provide additional platform area for improved shoe contact before clipping in or during unclipped riding. Best suited for intermediate to advanced racers who are comfortable with clipless pedal systems and want pedals engineered specifically for BMX racing demands rather than adapted from mountain biking applications. **Due to unique nature of this item, ALL sales of this product are FINAL.
