Born again cyclist needs advice
Dear Group, i have just bought myself a lovely new bike (Saracen Venturer)
after my old one gave out after 25 years good service. I should say here that i don't intend to do any off road riding, this is just for commuting, exercise and fun. I think the new bike is great and i enjoy riding it very much apart from one small niggle, the pedals. They seem to be a bit on the small side for my liking, both in length and width and they seem a bit slippy. Could you kind folks suggest a good wide non slippy set of pedals for me please? Oh! i'm in the UK if thats any help. -- Best Wishes from Martin So many questions, so few answers. PGP Key ID, 0x581E4CE1 |

Could you kind folks suggest a good wide non slippy set of pedals for me please? if you really want to enjoy cycling, get a set of clipless pedals and some good bike shoes! i really like my speedplay frogs. when you're clipped in, you don't have to worry about the pedals feeling "slippy", because they and the crank become part of your body. |
