CRANKBROTHERS STAMP1 (GEN.2)|Evolution of a Classic Flat Pedal
Stability you can feel the moment you step on. The popular flat pedal has evolved to be even easier to use.
The CRANKBROTHERS STAMP1 (GEN.2) is the entry-level flat pedal in the STAMP series, supported by MTB riders worldwide.
The STAMP series continues to receive high praise as a "must-buy flat pedal." The second generation, GEN.2, has further enhanced grip, durability, and stability, updating it to a more complete model.
A distinctive feature is the concave platform, where the center of the tread is slightly recessed. This allows the foot to settle naturally, providing high stability not only for MTB but also for urban commuting and gravel riding.
Furthermore, the number of replaceable pins has increased from 9 to 10. Their arrangement has also been revised, enhancing shoe grip performance more than previous models.
The internal structure adopts the design of the higher-end STAMP7. By using Igus LL-glide bearings on both the inner and outer sides, durability and sealing performance have also been improved.
The body is made of lightweight and highly durable reinforced composite material. A new body shape, designed to account for impacts with obstacles, significantly improves ease of handling for MTB riding.
Available in two sizes to match shoe sizes, this versatile flat pedal inherits the feel of top-end models while being available at an affordable price.

As a flat pedal, it is highly refined and an easily recommendable model for a first MTB pedal.
It offers excellent stability when stepping on, and thanks to its concave shape and pin arrangement, shoes tend to settle naturally. It's also quite user-friendly for urban commuting and gravel use.
Furthermore, GEN.2 features significant internal structure updates, greatly improving durability and rotation performance. I believe it's a flat pedal that offers more satisfaction than its price suggests.
