Welcome to the DIY-Carbon-Aluminium-Active-Pedals wiki!

This is my carbon fiber and aluminium set, for a DIY Active Pedals.

The alu set is based on the amazing DIY project of tjfenwick, and ChrGri. I discovered it some weeks ago, and I was exiting in doing it in a full Carbon Fiber and Aluminium version. I have re-designed all parts and ask to one of my trusted supplier about the opportunity to produce all this parts in Aluminium. Since the minimun production pieces was of 10 complete set, I had the idea to create a purchasing group to reach this quantity. The idea was very successful and we reached 16 interested users and already launched the first production batch.

NEW Purchasing Group

[8 Jan 2025] New production batch and a new purchasing group Started!!!

The new order will, once again, have to be a minimum of 10 complete sets. If you are interested in partecipate to the Purchasing group, please join the dedicated Discord channel here Discord server and look for this project in the Offerings (Marketplace).

Direct link Discord Discussion

As soon as we reach 10 interested users, you will pay for your set, and the order to the supplier will send. It takes about 18/20 days to produce and shipping.

The SK8 support suggested in all the BOMs found online for this project has 5.5 holes for M5 screws with a 32mm center distance. However, as you know, the carriages of our linear guides have M4 screws or M5 screw with a 30mm center distance. Although SK8 supports can be adapted, this is not a job I like and does not give certainty of positioning. We are therefore also making this Adapter in aluminium, with the correct holes and center distances for our project. It will then be offered to everyone as an option, or even as a single purchasable component.

Please refer to the Linear Guide Mount section to find out how to use it
