Title: pedal help please
Post by: weston on December 27, 2005, 06:04 PM
ive seen some pedals at the car boot but the person doesnt know what size they are, it has a number 3 on the end of each, i know this sounds silly but do you think they will fit a 3 piece crank... :idiot2:

can you see the actual axle end?  pedals are loose i assume....  Measure them!!!   ;)  1/2 or 9/16 across the end..... :)

Sorry bud,  bit confused now....

These pedals are obviously not on a crank...  you can see the threaded end....  you could measure the diameter... or compare them to your exsisting pedals?

Or are you not able to actually put your hands on them for some reason?   The likelyhood is that they'll be 9/16,  i know i sold many of those compared to 1/2 when i had my shop  ;)

Sounds like the simplest solution.  Are they the DX stylee snafu pedals?

well, buy em anyway (they will more than likely fit)

If they dont, someone here will buy em for a tenner.

Besides, offer him 5 and see what he says.

They're a decent pedal.  Worth keeping.  :)
