IN BRIEF
Praxis rounds out its flat pedal range with the Brodium SL, quoted at 364 grams a pair with its steel pins, against 400 grams for the standard Brodium G2. According to the official product page, it is listed at $200, against $140 for the current version; that page mentions no euro price. The body is machined from 6061-T6 aluminium, the axle is a heat-treated hollow chromoly, and each pedal gets two Enduro Gothic Arch bearings — a profile that Praxis says it is the first to apply to a pedal. Three colours are announced, for a rollout during August 2026.

The flat pedal is a stubborn object. It serves one purpose only, holding a sole in place, and for fifteen years most of its evolution has come down to three millimetres of concavity and to the way pins are screwed into it. Praxis has just brought out a new one all the same, the Brodium SL, and the argument rests less on the platform than on what turns inside it.
The Praxis Brodium SL sheds 36 grams without shrinking
The figure the brand puts forward is the weight: 364 grams a pair, steel pins included. The Brodium G2, which stays in the catalogue at $140, is quoted at 400 grams. Thirty-six grams apart, then, on a component that Praxis for its part presents as its “lightweight high-end MTB flat pedal”.
The platform measures 115 mm long by 112 mm wide, for 18 mm tall. Praxis quotes 17 mm of thickness without the pins, 30 mm once they are in place, and 3.5 mm of concavity in the body — 7.5 mm “effective” if you count the height of the pins. The body is machined from 6061-T6 aluminium; the axle, for its part, is a heat-treated hollow chromoly, fitted with an 8 mm Allen key and torqued to between 35 and 40 Nm on the crank.
A century-old bearing, applied to a pedal for the first time according to Praxis
This is the argument Praxis puts forward. Each pedal gets two Enduro “Gothic Arch” bearings and one Igus bushing. The principle is nothing new: the brand itself points out that these bearing geometries “have been around for more than a hundred years”. What Praxis claims is to have had Enduro adapt them to the constraints of a pedal — a high load over a very small thickness — and to be “the first to bring Enduro’s Gothic Arch bearings to pedals”. The arch is said to spread loads more evenly and to hold more grease, two points that decide a flat pedal’s lifespan far more than its weight.
The claim is the brand’s own, and use will settle it: on a pedal, the bearing suffers above all from water, mud and impacts. Praxis covers the component for two years against defects in materials or workmanship, and sells axle and service kits separately — a quiet admission that the part is made to be opened up again.
Pin adjustment, colours and availability
The Brodium SL ships with 48 steel pins already in place, mounted from the back — twelve per face, in M4 thread, which leaves the door open to aftermarket pins. Praxis adds twelve spare pins and 48 spacers, meant to vary the grip height face by face. Enough to tune the bite to your riding, without buying extra parts.
Three colours are announced in the catalogue: Black, Silver and Kold. According to the product page, the listed price is $200, with no euro pricing mentioned on that page — European prices will depend on distributors. As for availability, the product page stays terse: a rollout “during August 2026”.
