5000 Series: proven designs, great value
DW's 5000 Series of hardware puts DW's rugged hardware designs and innovative features into more affordable stands — ideal for the working drummer with professional needs. The 5000AD3 kick pedal features such much-appreciated components as the Accelerator drive system and the Delta Tri-Bearing System.

Accelerator drive
The Accelerator drive system offers an eccentric motion that creates an indirect relationship between the sprocket and the footboard, increasing the velocity of the pedal by shortening the length of the stroke. It is recommended for situations that require increased speed and sensitivity.


Delta Tri-Bearing System
DW's Delta Tri-Bearing System employs ball bearings in three critical areas: the hinge, spring rocker and both sides of the post casting. DW's patented Delta ball-bearing hinge is a state-of-the-art lightweight aluminum design that incorporates ball bearings at both sides. The adjustable spring rocker and post casting also utilize ball bearings for smoother movement at the hex shaft, completing the Tri-Bearing System.

I've never been a double kick guy, so one pedal has to do everything from simple 1 and 3 to ghost notes and funk. The dual chain drive gives me all the control I need for brush work to straight ahead... read more [+] rock. I now own three of these pedals for different set ups, and won't use anything else. close [-]
