MKS Sylvan Stream Brass for Circles

Circles Exclusive MKS Brass & Black Painted Brass Pedals

This is a custom model that Circles spent three years developing, from the conceptual stage, with the side plates of MKS's classic pedals manufactured from brass.

Unlike anodizing or electrodeposition coating, the black paint will peel off with use, revealing the brass base metal. The exposed base metal will then oxidize, gradually "tarnishing," and depending on the environment, verdigris may even appear. This finish allows each user to enjoy a unique aging process.

The side plates of the Raw model, which are finished with raw brass material, will "tarnish" with age and use, and also offer the pleasure of polishing them to create a new luster.

Sylvan Stream is a comfort-type pedal from MKS's classic Sylvan series. The compact double-sided tread features saw-toothed ridges designed to be higher than those on the Sylvan Touring model, providing greater grip with shoe soles.

The aluminum body is built around a hand-adjusted cup & cone bearing system, ensuring durability and smooth rotation. Maintenance can be performed using a dedicated cap spanner.

[SPEC]

*W = Tread width, L = Tread length
*MKS finishes the pedals with the balls adjusted to be slightly tighter to extend the period until readjustment is needed. This tightness is called "preload." After some use, an initial "break-in" will occur, and the rotation will become smoother.
