Hey, what has worked for me thus far with sylvan like pedal, midfoot, floppy sandals, and simplicity is this.
VO Half clips installed with 25mm bushings (easily variable) from a hardware store to allow my foot to be forward enough on the pedal. This works great, but there isn't much support for the heal of my foot, sooo I hacked off the "toe" part of an old pair of toe clips and installed them on the back side of the pedal, where the reflector usually goes. This gives my foot a solid platform nearly eight inches long with some retention in the toe area. I am still needing to modify the backwards toe clip to have some grip as my heal moves around on bumpy wet conditions slightly. I'm thinking of drilling some holes and punching them out from underneath as faux pins, with an added addition of drillium. The downsides... It is not a solid foot to the pedal retention like clipless pedals or power grips, but it does have some (not sure how much you are after). It has a learning curve when mounting steep and rough terrain and won't ever be as quick as a flat pedal. The toe clips won't fit big winter boots, but my guess, based on looking at some of your pictures, it would fit your winter footwear. You may have to bend the toe clips a smidge though. The upside. Simple, reliable, and darn near every bike shop has a pair of old quill pedals laying around if the pedals ever get messed up on tour. Also, I do find it pretty darn comfortable. Here is a picture to get the idea. <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-7drasw6EiXc/Wu9ZW3at2dI/AAAAAAAAAQ0/EQv0KAzcpfohaPiu1ZrLX4wArgEH4f25QCLcBGAs/s1600/Pedal.jpg> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
