Speedplay Nanogram Pedal Disassembly - Required ONLY to replace worn or damaged parts.
Tools Needed: T-20 Torx Key, Retainer clip pliers, 6mm hex key.
Step 1. Back out the Grease-Port Screw just enough to grip with pliers and pull to remove dust cap from body. Be careful
not to damage the Grease-Port screw during the dust cap removal.
Step 2. Remove the Torx Screw (T-20 size) from the end of the spindle. To ease removal of the Torx Screw, heat the screw
with a soldering gun to 300°F to loosen the bond of the Loctite on the screw threads.
Step 3. Pull the spindle out of the Nanogram Pedal body.
Step 4. Using retainer clip pliers, remove the retainer clip from the groove in the bore of the Nanogram Pedal body.
Step 5. Push both cartridge bearings out the dust cap side of the Nanogram Pedal body. (Use the spindle with Torx Screw
partially installed as a tool to carefully push the bearings out of the Nanogram Pedal body).
CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to remove the needle bearing from the Nanogram Pedal body. The needle
!
bearing is permanently bonded and cannot be removed from the Nanogram Pedal body.
Lubrication and Reassembly
Use a high quality waterproof grease on the needle bearing and use a new "O" ring (grease it too) when overhauling Nano-
gram Pedals. Any worn or damaged parts should be replaced. Reassembly is accomplished by reversing the order of the
above instructions.
Very Important - The 136 ceramic bearing MUST be re-installed with the open side of the inner nylon bearing retainer
facing toward the end of the spindle that threads into the crank. Be sure the retainer clip is fully seated in bore
groove and reapply Loctite to the Torx Screw threads when reassembling Pedal.

screws can be differentiated from the regular steel bowtie screws in that the threads are on only half the length of
the screw shaft.

Note:DO NOT try to remove the needle bearing from the Nanogram Pedal body. The needle bearing is
permanently bonded in the Nanogram Pedal body and cannot be removed without damaging components.
CAUTION
Use Grease Only! Never use oil or spray lubes on bearings.
!
1. Remove the Grease-Port Screw with a #1 Phillips screw driver.
2. Insert Speedplay syringe grease injector into the pedal's grease-port hole.
3. Pump slowly while also turning the Nanogram Pedal body slowly until clean grease is visible at spindle end of Pedal
body.
4. Wipe off excess grease and reinstall Grease-Port Screw. Note: Over-tightening the Grease-Port Screw may strip the
threads of the dust cap.
NOTE: Damage due to the lack of lubrication is not covered by Speedplay's warranty policy.
Speedplay recommends that the Nanogram Pedal bearings be greased at least every 500 miles or every three
months. Pedals should always be lubricated immediately after riding in wet, rainy or unusually dusty conditions.
Speedplay Grease Guns (Part # 13175) and replacement 3oz. Grease Tube (Part # 13560) are available from Speed-
play retailers or call Speedplay at 1-800-468-6694 (PST).
Speedplay Nanogram Race-Day-Only Pedal Systems are ultra high-performance products. Like all high-performance
products, Nanogram Pedal Systems require special care and maintenance in order to function as intended.
IMPORTANT: Scuffing and wear to the beveled alloy edges of the pedals from the cleat springs during entry
and general use is normal and should be expected.
