Wide foot seeking wide pedal for special get-together.
So...umm...need a wide pedal for Muni. Width (as in: dimension measured along the pedal axle) is the top priority. Other things this foot looks for in a pedal a Thin. (Before you get offended--I mean as in low-profile pedal height) Light. (Again, not like it sounds.) Concave. (I like 'em curvy like that.) Clingy. (Think grippy.) And, of course, smartly dressed helps. Thx for playing matchmaker, Jesse -- JesseG |

I think the Drillium pedals fit all those criteria (not sure about weight though), and are apparently good for muni. They're very expensive though.

Rob I've seen those (in pictures). They are certainly dressed nicely, and I'd buy em if they're wider than other pedals. Problem is, I never seem to be able to get stats on how wide pedals are. I agree they look wide, do you know how wide they actually are, or that they are wider than another certain pedal. thx. -- JesseG |

Wide foot seeking wide pedal for special get-together.
I have really sensitive feet...as in, they start hurting really fast if the pedal bodies aren't big enough. I reeeeaaaallly love my wellgo mg-1's, and they match all your criteria...light, grippy, and big pedal body. -- onelesscar Catching the coker fever. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ onelesscar's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11127 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/73988 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

You could try PMing him if he doesn't respond to this thread. Rob As far as width and thickness they are the same as most platforms I've seen. They are about the same width as my DX pedals, and a tad wider than my JC's. My next pedals are going to be low prifile as well, but almost all are expensive and aren't compatible w/ pedal protectors. I'm looking at KONA WAH WAH's. The '08 pair are a bit less $, but the '09 ones come in white too (now called Primo). The '09 standard WAH WAH's cost a lot less (i think $35) but, there aren't as many pins & I don't think they are removable (but if they're the same as the standard Jack****s, they're very grippy, a bit more than my DX's), and in pictures they look like they may be a tad thicker than the Primos. -- skilewis74 Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere.

Kona Jack****s.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Do you have the standard ones or the Pimos? (The standard ones pins' aren't removable, similar to my DX's, the Primos have set screws) After getting them I discovered mine are the Primos. Now I think set screws didn't give me a good grip to moveability ratio in comparison to my DX's or JC's, after puting in longer screws to get enough grip. -- skilewis74 Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere.

Im sure theya re standard. Just as grippy as Mg-1s or Tiogas. Ive wrecked quite a few times cause I couldnt pull my foot off the pedal. =p -- Jerrick [SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC][SIGPIC] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jerrick's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11632 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/73988 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Wide foot seeking wide pedal for special get-together.
I've looked at the wah-wahs. They are really beautiful, but only maybe 5 millimeters bigger than my (I think very average sized) plastic Animals. I would really love it if someone could measure a Drillium or any other pedals suggested. I've discovered that looks can be deceiving. Thx. -- JesseG |
