Big Fat Wide Pedals?


Bill_B

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for some pedals, I have a pair of Atomlab trailkings on my XC bike with seem pretty big. I have wide size 13 feet and often find my feet overhang the edge of the pedals, if the ball of my little toe/foot joint is not solidly on the pedal platform I don't feel so confident. so what pedals are out there that are as wide as or wider than the Atomlabs (I also have some outlands which are a bit narrow).

I would recommend dmr v12's or v8's these aint too wide but if your looking for a really wide pedal Revell Team they ride nice but are abit to wide for me and gusset Slim Jim Magnesium look wide not sure how they ride never rode them:(

Ben :P

I got size 12 feet and found the v12s/v8s too small, reasonable width but not length, i feel comfortable on the onza hognesium pedals.

Those crank bros 5050s do look nice, I'll have a closer look at them.

I put V8s on the girlfriends bike and I'm not keen on them are the V12s the same physical size?

I'll look out for the revells

The V12s are the same size just better bearings, and last longer :D and you can pimp them ;) with different bolts ect :)

they 50/50 has good bearing quality and you can customise them! whack different coloured plates on and stuff.

but disadvantage i found with them is way too little grip, you should consider getting longer pins for them.

V8 and V12 share the same alloy body, V12's has sealed bearings.

Well I'm size 13 and I ride Odyssey Jim C's and I can fit my shoe on the pedal, really they are awesome, they have lots of concaveness and actually do come with the replacement pins in two sizes, available in aluminium, sealed bearing, regular bearings and magnesium body in any combination. The Mg version is 289 grams and the Al version is 360 grams. - Lighter than the Mg V12 s but you actually have a place to put your feet on it.

I don't really know about UK bike sites, but I found this

magnesium version

aluminium version

Damn, I didn't know they pwned v12 that much.

Oh and if all else fails, try some BMW shinburgers
