Australia's First Premium Flat Pedals
Designed, Engineered & Machined in Brookvale. Tested on the Northern Beaches. Built to Outlast Everything. .
We're engineers who ride the Northern Beaches every week - Manly Dam to Mt Narra and everything in between. Led by Chief Engineer John Bridekirk - a rider who's broken more pedals than most people have owned - and backed by Sorensen Engineering's 50 years of precision manufacturing experience.We kept seeing the same problems: Pins would unscrew and fall out mid-ride. Bearings would die after one wet season. Premium imports would take 6 weeks to warranty. So we designed and built what we needed: A pedal that grips harder, lasts longer, and canbe rebuilt in your shed when it's time.
What makes Dropbear
pedals different:
• Patent-pending angled pins on the outboard edge to prevent foot slip
• Thread-free push-pin system - pins won't unscrew and fall out
• Hardened stainless steel pins that won't snap on rock strikes
• Tapered pin design for maximum grip without foot fatigue
• 1mm minimal concavity - serious grip without the bucket-foot feeling
• 100% rebuildable - bearings, bushings, and axles you can service yourself
Proven by riders across Australia & New Zealand
"After 4,100km of testing, these are the first pedals that haven't let me down. The angled pins actually work - my foot stays planted even in greasy conditions. As someone who's broken every other pedal on the market, I finally designed one that can keep up."
John Bridekirk, Chief Engineer & Founder, Sorensen Engineering

Lifetime warranty. Crash replacement.
Mountain biking is destructive by nature - we know this because we ride.
Our warranty promise:
-
Lifetime warranty on manufacturing defects
-
Crash replacement program at reduced cost (because crashes happen)
-
Fast local service - no international shipping delays
Rebuildable by design: you can service them yourself. No special tools required. Just quality components designed to be maintained. Like the pros, we recommend replacing pedals every 2-3 years to avoid failure risk. But unlike cheap pedals, these will last if you maintain them.
