MKS LAMBDA | Vertical pedals with unique design and excellent rideability
A pedal co-designed with Rivendell, combining a distinctive vertical design with high practicality.
"LAMBDA" is a pedal co-designed by MKS / MIKASHIMA SEISAKUSHO, a long-established Japanese pedal brand, and Rivendell Bicycle Works, a popular American bike brand based in California.
Its most distinguishing feature is its unique, vertically elongated tread surface, which differs from conventional pedals. It provides a secure feeling by firmly supporting the sole of your foot and naturally fits a wide range of footwear, from sneakers to boots.
Furthermore, the tread surface features a suction cup-like grip pattern. This makes it non-slip and gentle on the soles of your feet, supporting comfortable pedaling from city riding to touring, and even snow riding on fat bikes.
Another key point is that the unique vertical design ensures ample road clearance even during high-speed cornering. This pedal not only has an individualistic appearance but also embodies Rivendell's philosophy, meticulously considering practicality.
This Japanese-made flat pedal is recommended for those who want to enjoy a slightly different atmosphere, from classic commuters to gravel bikes and fat bikes.

LAMBDA is a pedal that is not only unique in appearance but also highly practical in actual use.
In particular, the wide vertical tread surface pairs very well with boots, and the suction cup-like grip provides excellent hold, ensuring a sense of security whether riding in the city or off-road.
When paired with fat bikes or gravel bikes, it creates a rather distinctive impression in both performance and appearance. Of course, when paired with a commuter bike, you can still enjoy the unique atmosphere characteristic of Rivendell.
This model is recommended for those looking for a pedal that is "a little different from the norm, but still very user-friendly."
