Whether you're grinding up the Western Ghats on gravel or threading through Pune's morning traffic on a hybrid, the Mallet 2's dual-sided entry and recessed cleat design make clipping in and walking off-bike equally straightforward.

The recessed cleat means you can walk on temple steps or roadside dhabas without slipping. At Rs. 9,000, it's a considered upgrade for anyone moving from flat pedals to clipless for the first time, or stepping up from entry-level systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSizing for Indian Riders\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePedals are one-size hardware, but cleat fit matters greatly. The Mallet 2 uses the Crank Brothers two-bolt cleat system, so confirm your cycling shoes have a two-bolt (SPD-compatible) sole pattern before ordering. In India's heat — Chennai summers exceed 38°C — shoes swell slightly; choose shoes with room to spare. Float-wise, newer riders benefit from more lateral movement to protect knees on long rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mallet 2 uses the standard 9\/16-inch pedal thread, fitting virtually all crank arms. It is compatible with the Crank Brothers two-bolt cleat system — not SPD-SL or Look three-bolt soles. Cleats are typically included. Clean the cleat retention mechanism periodically, especially after monsoon rides or dusty Rajasthan highways, to maintain reliable engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePairs Well With\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete your drivetrain contact points with two-bolt compatible cycling shoes (MTB or gravel style), a set of replacement Crank Brothers cleats, a quality pedal wrench for home servicing, and waterproof cycling socks for monsoon training rides across Hyderabad or Kolkata.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/crank-brothers\"\u003eExplore the full Crank Brothers collection at Cobbled Climbs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"cc-spec-table\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTime\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCycling Pedals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShipped From\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMumbai, India\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cobbledclimbs.com\/collections\/time-sport\" title=\"Time India\"\u003eExplore the full Time collection at Cobbled Climbs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy from Cobbled Climbs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% genuine — authorised Time retailer in India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree delivery on orders above Rs. 2,500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCash on delivery available nationwide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-day easy returns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipped from Mumbai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpert advice — built for Indian cycling conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e.cc-faq{margin:32px 0 24px}.cc-faq__item{border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;margin:0}.cc-faq__item:last-of-type{border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5}.cc-faq__q{cursor:pointer;list-style:none;padding:24px 0;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:24px;outline:none}.cc-faq__q::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.cc-faq__q:focus-visible{outline:2px solid #000;outline-offset:-2px}.cc-faq__q::after{content:\"\";width:14px;height:14px;flex-shrink:0;background-image:url('data:image\/svg+xml;utf8,\u003csvg viewBox=\\\"0 0 14 14\\\" xmlns=\\\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\\\"\u003e\u003cpath d=\\\"M2 5l5 5 5-5\\\" stroke=\\\"%23000\\\" stroke-width=\\\"1.5\\\" fill=\\\"none\\\"\/\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e');background-repeat:no-repeat;background-position:center;transition:transform .2s ease}.cc-faq__item[open] .cc-faq__q::after{transform:rotate(180deg)}.cc-faq__a{padding:0 0 28px;margin:0}\u003c\/style\u003e\u003csection class=\"cc-faq\" aria-label=\"Frequently Asked Questions\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"cc-faq__item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"cc-faq__q\"\u003eWhat is the Crank Brothers Mallet 2 best used for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003eThe Mallet 2 is best suited for gravel riding, trail cycling, and mixed-terrain adventures where you need clipless efficiency on the bike but walkability off it. The recessed cleat design handles rough Indian roads, forest tracks around Coorg, and urban stops with equal ease — making it a strong choice for riders who do not want a dedicated road pedal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"cc-faq__item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"cc-faq__q\"\u003eWhat size Crank Brothers Mallet 2 should I order?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003ePedal sizing is not applicable — all Mallet 2 pedals use the standard 9\/16-inch axle thread that fits virtually every crank arm. What matters is your shoe's sole pattern. You need two-bolt compatible cycling shoes to use the Mallet 2. Verify your shoes before purchasing.

In 35°C+ heat, the aluminium platform remains stable. Service the bearings annually for best longevity if you ride daily through India's varied seasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"cc-faq__item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"cc-faq__q\"\u003eHow does the Crank Brothers Mallet 2 compare to a standard SPD pedal?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003eBoth use two-bolt cleat mounting, but the Mallet 2 adds a larger platform around the clipless mechanism, providing more support underfoot — particularly useful on technical terrain or for riders transitioning from flat pedals. Standard SPD pedals are lighter and more compact, better suited to road commuting. The Mallet 2 prioritises stability and confidence on varied surfaces over minimal weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"cc-faq__item\"\u003e\u003csummary class=\"cc-faq__q\"\u003eIs the Crank Brothers Mallet 2 worth Rs. 9,000 in India, and what warranty does it include?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp class=\"cc-faq__a\"\u003eAt Rs. 9,000, the Mallet 2 offers a durable clipless platform that bridges the gap between pure trail pedals and road-efficiency clipless systems. For gravel riders and MTB enthusiasts across Pune, Hyderabad, or Bengaluru, the walkability and dual-sided entry add genuine daily value.
