Tucked away near the FSA and Prologo booths was a very small table with a very interesting power meter pedal design. A German company named Mess Werk has a new, easily swappable pedal-body design and a compelling build story. (All/Photos Jordan Villella)What is Mess Werks? Mess Werk pedals are a new power-meter pedal design from the designers of Pro2Max power meters. The design is similar to other power base pedals. It offers dual-sided power measurement, swappable road and mountain bike bodies, and a 120hr charge life. Mountain Bike Body The mountain bike body looks simliar to the Garmin pedal offerings with a slight lean towards the Shimano side. The body isnt super wide with platform, but a convincing offering. The pedals have a high gloss look that are eyecatching, and there are rumors of other non-shimano style pedal body options after the inital release. Three-Bolt Road The road body looks more like what SRM are offering with a lower stack height, slim pedal design, while keeping the cleat Shimano compatable. Safety Lights! Much like the Look Keo light pedals we reviewed earlier this year, the Mess Werk pedals will come with a optional training light feature that clips to the rear of the pedal. Charging Both the pedals, and the additional light feature use a type-c charger. The pedal charger is a roubust clip style piece (simliar to the Wahoo/Speedplay design) that clips to the pedal and charges via two magnetic prongs. When/Where & How Much? The rumor is that these pedals will hit the market around the summer time worldwide with a retail price of around $400. Mess Werk will offer extended maintance, crash replacements, and a 5-year warranty. Keep an eye out, these pedals could be a next level design if the price stays as claimed.
