Hi,


My pedals on my specialzed tricross seem a little on the slim side and when wearing my trainers that i usually use i feel that my foot is overhanging the edges of the pedals and are wary of my foot slipping off the pedal. Have measure them and they are 100mm wide from the crank arm, now having measure my mtb they are the same width but never really noticed it when on my mtb, perhaps due to a different riding style/position ?

My feet are size 10 and the trainers are not wider than most so wondering is there some sort of extension i can screw in between the arm and the pedal or do pedals come in different widths ?


Regards,



Martyn.

No extenders exist as far as I am aware.

Pedals don't come in a choice of widths but different models vary in all dimensions. It is a case of reading item descriptions until you find a wide pedal.

After a fair amount of searching around I purchased Blackspire platforms for my fun bike as they seemed the best size / weight / quality / cost compromise.

I've always used DMR V12's on MTB's as the grip and smoothness of them is better than any others I've tried, Evans are doing them for about £35 ATM too which is a bargain IMO and will be the first upgrade on my new bike.
