TheBurgtec Penthouse MK5 Flat Pedalsare now bigger, grippier and lighter than ever before.While much has changed over the years,Burgtechave alwaysfocused towards building some of the toughest and grippiest flat pedals available. Their journey started some 17-years ago on the slopes of Schladming in ‘03. The MK1 Penthouse Flat Prototype that debuted that weekend and inevitably paved the way for the MK2 in ‘07, the MK3 in ‘09 and the MK4 in ‘14. Burgtec's goals for theBurgtec Penthouse MK5 Flat Pedalsfollowed the same design and development path as every other Penthouse Flat pedal before it; utilise all advances in both materials and manufacturing, balance the weight and durability, and maximise the amount of grip. From the MK4 to the MK5,Burgtechave shed 65 grams per pair, increased the overall platform footprint by 7%, the dish by 1mm and decreased the pin width by 0.5mm. Following feedback from the Burgtec MK4,they have 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 their disposal, they extensively experimented with different platform sizes, pin widths, and pin heights to maximise that essential underfoot grip. It was of an importance that theBurgtec Penthouse MK5 Flat Pedalsinternals represent the best of the best. To do thisBurgtec specced the most wear-resistant bushings from Igus. The "Endurance Runner" material (W300) was the 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 combination of quality parts is why the Penthouse series has a reputation for unrivalled longevity.
