[Dropped]

Hi Guys,

Brought some Crank brother candy 1s a few weeks ago and they have been sweet no problems but have been mainly riding XC, apart from yesterday I managed to do some downhill/free riding where i ran into a slight issue.

When hitting jumps my left foot seems to come out of the pedal really easy, i managed to pull it off landing one footed but would rather land with both feet clipped in.

Currently the clip out is set to 15 degrees, i think there is two option 15/20 would rather stay at 15.

Has anyone else run into this issue?

Large platforms are much better for jumping (if you want clipless, try the Mallets). Your probably clipping out because your pulling up on the pedals which is not the correct technique. Practicing jumping with platform pedals is a good way to correct this error.

ya, Candy's are really designed for that.. they are basically an XC pedal.

Same problem here. I have candy 2 on one bike, put candy 3 on the new bike and replaced my cleats now i pop out all over the place, i think its a bad run of cleats.
