Summary by Recall Canary from the CPSC notice

What happened

PNW Components, Inc., of Seattle, Washington, is recalling its Loam Pedal Gen 2 aluminum alloy bicycle pedals. The pedal axle can crack, causing the pedal to detach from the crank, posing a fall hazard to the rider. The firm has received four reports of the pedal axle cracking and detaching from the crank, with no injuries reported. About 1,200 pedals are affected.

The recalled pedals are platform style (non-clip) mountain bike pedals, available in black, silver, green, orange and purple. They can be identified by a "Tectonic" logo laser etched onto the pedal body on the left corner, on the same side as the threaded axle.

The pedals were 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. They were made in Taiwan and imported by PNW Components.

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.
