01 / WHY MKS
Why
Mikashima Manufacturing?
Pedals are where you move your bicycle and support your body. That's why we want to make them right, inside and out.
MADE IN JAPAN
Craftsmanship you can trust underfoot.
Mikashima Manufacturing, a Japanese pedal manufacturer. Their long history of designing and manufacturing pedals supports SimWorks' ideas.
SINCE 2021
The first step was Bubbly.
Development began in 2020, leading to the launch of Bubbly in 2021. This collaboration started with a platform designed to fit comfortably underfoot while providing smooth rotation.
CONTACT POINT
The perfect middle ground between your shoes and your bicycle.
Handlebars, saddle, and pedals. Each contact point with your body reflects a different way of riding. We designed pedals that feel natural to use with your everyday shoes.
FILM / 60 SECONDS
In 60 seconds,
where pedals are born.
A factory lined with toolboxes, well-used machines, and hands carefully checking each rotation. Where Bubbly is made and by whose hands. A 60-second film released by SimWorks.
02 / FEEL THE DIFFERENCE
Smooth rotation.
That's not enough.
It's not about bigger or smaller. Bubbly's platform has a gently concave shape that curves toward the center. It's designed to support the sole of your shoe and naturally determine where your foot rests.
Whether on a short commute or a long day of riding. Because it's a place you'll notice every time you start pedaling, we want to prioritize how it fits underfoot.
Bubbly/Tiny Bubbly: Triple sealed bearings.
Taco: Adjustable cup-and-cone bearings.
03 / CHOOSE YOUR PEDAL
Which pedal is
right for your feet?
Platform size, compatibility with your shoes, and how to maintain them. First, let's look at the differences between the 3 standard models.
Tiny Bubbly
The Bubbly concept, but one size smaller. A model you can choose based on the balance with your shoes and bicycle.
Width 86 × Length 96 × Thickness 30mm
360g / Pair, standard axle
Taco
A wide platform with replaceable pins. For those who prioritize sole grip and an adjustable structure.
Width 105 × Length 110 × Thickness 33mm
498g / Pair, standard axle
The listed dimensions and weight are for the standard axle model. They differ from the Ezy Superior specification and limited-edition models. Don't choose based on shoe size alone; please also check the sole shape and how your foot rests.
Compare the 3 standard models
| Standard axle model | Bubbly | Tiny Bubbly | Taco |
|---|---|---|---|
| Platform width × Length | 97 × 108mm | 86 × 96mm | 105 × 110mm |
| Thickness | 30mm | 30mm | 33mm |
| Weight / Pair | 392g | 360g | 498g |
| Bearings | Triple sealed | Triple sealed | Cup & cone |
| Key points | Wide platform and foot fit | Compact size | Pins and maintainability |
04 / SMALLER, STILL BUBBLY
A little smaller.
Just as much fun.
Tiny Bubbly is 11mm narrower and 12mm shorter than Bubbly. Its rounded silhouette blends in with both commuter and touring bikes.
It shares the same concave shape that supports your foot and triple sealed bearings. Choose it based on the balance with your everyday shoes and bicycle.
05 / EZY SUPERIOR
Just removable,
and lighter.
When fitting into a bike bag. When loading into a car. When storing at home. The removable Ezy Superior is useful when you want to reduce the pedal's protrusion.
Bubbly and Tiny Bubbly are available in dual-sided removable models. Tiny Bubbly One Side has a removable left side and a standard axle on the right. Choose it based on how you fold your bicycle.
Consult about choosing pedals06 / INSIDE & CARE
Even the parts you can't see
have reasons for being chosen.
Bubbly and Tiny Bubbly have two bearings inside the axle and one on the outside. This distributes the load while keeping the height from the axle to the platform low.
The manufacturer does not recommend disassembling these bearings. The cap also serves to position them, so if you notice unusual noise or play, please consult us before opening it.
Taco uses cup-and-cone bearings that allow for ball-to-cup adjustment and greasing. Not only the feel of rotation, but also the maintenance method for continued use differs by model.
07 / HOW TO & FAQ
Things you should know
before choosing.
For instructions on using Ezy Superior, check Mikashima Manufacturing's official video. You can see the initial installation and daily removal.
Video: Mikashima Manufacturing official. From 0:40, adapter installation; from 1:28, pedal removal. View official explanation →
Can Ezy and Ezy Superior use the same adapter?
The pedal body and adapter are not compatible. Simply adding an adapter to a standard axle pedal does not make it removable. Please check the specifications before purchasing.
Is a tool required for installation?
A compatible thin 15mm pedal wrench is required for the initial adapter installation. Subsequent removal can be done without tools. Install according to the manufacturer's instructions and check the mounted state before use.
Can Ezy Superior be used for any style of riding?
It is not for racing. Do not use it for off-road riding involving jumps or strong impacts. If you are unsure about the intended use or compatibility, please consult us.
Can I choose a model based on shoe size alone?
In addition to platform dimensions, the width and shape of the sole, and where you place your foot also affect the feel. If you consult us with your everyday shoes and intended use, we will help you choose.
The rotation of Taco feels a little heavy at first.
The manufacturer ships it with pre-tensioning in mind for initial break-in. If you feel an abnormal strong catch, do not loosen it yourself and please consult us.
I need repair parts such as side plates and pins.
The compatible parts differ by model. Side plates are for repair, so we need to check your purchase history. Please contact us with the model name, store where you purchased it, and the part you want to replace.
