What is the hazard with Loam Pedal Gen 2 aluminum alloy bicycle pedals?

Loam Pedal Gen 2 aluminum alloy bicycle pedals was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. The pedal axle can crack, causing the pedal to detach from the crank, posing a fall hazard to the rider. That is the hazard as reported publicly by the firm and the regulator; it does not necessarily mean every unit has failed.

What should you do if you own this product?

Consumers should immediately stop using the Loam Pedal Gen 2 and contact PNW Components to receive free replacement axles once they become available. In the interim PNW Components is providing consumers with the Range Pedal, free of charge. PNW Components will follow up with consumers regarding the replacement axle system, estimated to begin shipping out to customers on January 5, 2026. Sold at: Independent bicycle dealers and online at PNWComponents.com, REI.com, Backcountry.com and JensonUSA.com from June 2025 through November 2025 for about $160 per pair.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.

How many units are affected?

About About 1,200 units of Loam Pedal Gen 2 aluminum alloy bicycle pedals are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
