Funn shaves some grams, doubles the pin count and introduces their Angular Engagement System to their Ripper pedal to produce the Ripper2.
Pete casts his verdict on the latest pedal to come from the Funn stable. This time it’s the Ripper2 double-sided clip pedal being run through the mill.

The second generation Funn Ripper pedals owe a lot to their ancestor but the devil is in the details. You still get a CroMo axle running on sealed bearings and a DU bush, plus a 6061 CNC’d aluminium cage and forged main body. That body is slimmer on the front face by 3mm and slimmer in depth by 4mm, but shaves an impressive 65g off the weight of the previous pedal.
Despite the smaller profile, you get more pins, double in face. 8 per side instead of four. All of these are removeable to allow you to fine tune the feel. The body is also concave to provide that little bit more support when things get wild. On top of this, the cleat mechanism is tipped up at 15 degrees to further aid engagement.
Funn claim that these will do everything from downhill to cross country, at 505g a pair for the double-sided offerings, they’re likely overkill for any real cross country work. They are, however, on the money for a downhill and/or enduro pedal.

Key to this is the Angular Engagement System and a decent platform upon which to dangle a trotter. If things have got a bit spicy and you need to deploy a safety leg, there’s few pedals easier to clip back into. It’s only a 15 degree tilt but it makes a noticeable difference, especially when you’re pushing on and there’s a few more chilis in the mix.
Despite putting these pedals through everything from big Highland missions to laps at Dyfi Bike Park, they’re still running smooth and I don’t think they’ve had contact with the deck so they look pretty fresh. All of the internal parts of the pedal are replaceable and readily available should they start to go rough.
What do we think?
In a World where so many SPD compatible pedals exist, being different isn’t easy but is pretty important. Funn have pushed their head out from the crowd with their Angular Engagement System and they’ll suit anyone looking for easy engagement.
We love:
