NuCanoe H2 Pro-Ped Pedal Drive for the Frontier and Pursuit Kayaks
I try the NuCanoe H2 Pro-Ped, a removable track mounted pedal drive for the Frontier and Pursuit, and find out how seat position changes everything.
What’s in this video
The H2 Pro-Ped is a removable, track mounted pedal drive from NuCanoe with a twin blade prop. Right now it fits the Frontier and Pursuit, and the NuCanoe rep said they plan to make it fit future models, possibly including the Flint.
It felt smooth and quiet and looks very well made. At first I was sitting too far back and my pedaling looked choppy. Once I moved the seat forward, it pedaled with ease and performance was impressive. This is the quietest drive I have tested on a kayak.
Quick takeaways
- It's track mounted and removable, and fits the NuCanoe Frontier and Pursuit.
- Get your seat position right: moving forward fixed my choppy pedaling.
- It was the quietest kayak drive I had tested.
