Pedals

Pedals. Many times as we try out or ride bikes , we do not pay attention to the pedals that our feet are on . Most pedals for normal shoes and riding are very comfortable . As such, as we ride the bike, we just do not think about the pedals under our feet
What many people might not know is that most bikes under 1000 dollars retail have pedals with less then impressive bearing races. What this means is that after as little as 1 year of normal riding , the pedals do not run smooth and are starting to have end play which results in noisy and poor performance for the rider . The good news is that the bike industry does make a number of pedals that far exceed lower quality ones . Here at supersized cycles , we understand the value of having not only a larger pedal that will fit our client's feet ,but also having a bearing structure in the pedal that will give the lasting support that our customers have come to expect from us .
Happy pedaling
