Hope F22 MTB Flat Pedals
The Hope F22 MTB flat pedals are built for riders who want more grip, more foot support and a more planted feel on technical terrain. With a redesigned platform, adjustable pins, a dual concave profile and fully serviceable internals, they are aimed at mountain bikers who want premium flat pedals for trail, enduro and aggressive off-road riding.
Why choose this product
- Larger platform improves foot stability and support compared with the older F20 design.
- Asymmetric shape is designed to support more of the shoe sole while still offering clearance in tight ruts and narrow gaps.
- Adjustable pins help you tune grip to your riding style and shoe choice.
- Dual concave profile helps create a more secure and planted feel underfoot.
- Serviceable internals are built for long-term use rather than short-term convenience.
- Revised axle design targets improved strength and impact resistance.
Who is it for
These pedals are best for mountain bikers who ride flat pedals and want dependable grip on rough trails. They suit trail riders, enduro riders and anyone who values a secure platform feel, especially in fast, technical terrain.
If you want a lightweight, premium alloy flat pedal with a serviceable design and stronger shoe support than older Hope flat pedals, the F22 is the more relevant option.
Redesigned platform for better support
Hope increased the platform size compared with the F20 and reshaped it to support more of the shoe sole. In real-world riding, that means better stability when the trail gets rough and more confidence when you need to stay centred on the bike.
Pin design focused on grip and serviceability
The reverse-loading pin layout is designed to reduce the chance of pins coming loose and to improve removability when you need to replace them. The unique hex-shaped pins are there to add bite, while the supplied spacers let you fine-tune pin height.
Dual concave feel for a more planted ride
The dual concave profile is one of the biggest performance upgrades here. Combined with shorter pins towards the middle and no pin locations in the centre of the platform, it is designed to help your shoe sit more securely on the pedal.
Built to last, not just to look good
Hope kept the proven internal layout from the F20 and paired it with three cartridge bearings, an IGUS bush and internal plus external sealing. That matters if you ride in wet, gritty UK conditions and want pedals you can keep running long term.
Comparison
Hope F22 vs Hope F20
The F22 is positioned as the next evolution of Hope’s flat pedal platform. It adds a larger platform, more shoe support, a more developed concave feel and a revised pin design. If you liked the durability of the F20 but wanted better grip and stability, the F22 is the stronger option.
Hope F22 vs more budget flat pedals
The F22 sits in the premium end of the market. It is not the cheapest route into MTB flat pedals, but it does make a stronger case on durability, serviceability, build quality and refined platform design than many entry-level alternatives.
Is it worth it?
Yes, if you want premium MTB flat pedals that prioritise grip, support and long-term durability. The F22 is not the budget choice, but it is a serious option for riders who want better foot stability, rebuildable internals and the kind of quality Hope is known for.
For riders who spend a lot of time on technical trails, that extra control and confidence can be worth the higher price.
