Burgtec Penthouse Flat MK5 Pedals

Bigger, grippier, lighter and as tough as ever. The Penthouse Flat MK5 pedal is here!

After two years of development and testing the MK5 Penthouse Flat is here. Retaining our signature toughness, the MK5 is the lightest and grippiest Burgtec pedal to date. We did this by not only increasing the size of the pedal platform but also how concave it is. Furthermore, we reduced the diameter of the pins and added the most wear-resistant internals on the market. From the outside to the inside, we’ve sweated the details of the MK5 to bring you the ultimate flat pedal.

Taking on feedback from the MK4 mtb pedals we tried a number of different Q-factors to balance the foot’s position in relation to the cranks.

With every flat pedal shoe on the market at our disposal, we experimented with different platform sizes, pin widths, and pin heights to maximise grip underfoot.

It was of the utmost importance that the MK5’s internals represents the best of the best. To do this we specced the most wear-resistant bushings from Igus. Their “Endurance Runner” material – W300 – was a clear winner as this gave unrivalled resistance to external influences. Mud and water ingress is kept at bay with a full-contact oil seal. This keeps grease in and contaminants out even in the harshest of conditions. This configuration of quality parts is why the Penthouse series has a reputation for outstanding longevity.
