Welcome to the Future of Cycling Pedal Performance, Safety & Comfort.
Pure Pedal Performance: Full-Foot Pedals are the only lightweight, foot-shaped, contoured, 2-sided pedals designed for tadpole trikes, custom-made to fit your feet, that deliver full foot-to-pedal contact and power transfer.
Safety: Full-Foot Pedals’ adjustable arch straps and heel cups securely hold your feet on your pedals to prevent "Leg Suck". Leg Suck is a very dangerous accident that can happen when your foot slips backwards off your pedals while you’re cycling, your foot hits the ground while your trike is moving forward, and the crossbar of your trike frame runs over your leg, resulting in a painful leg injury (see videos above, demonstrating Leg Suck on conventional bike pedals, vs. no Leg Suck on Full-Foot Pedals). Every trike rider needs to have safe, secure pedals on their trike to prevent Leg Suck from happening.
Comfort: With Full-Foot Pedals, you don't need to wear stiff-soled cycling shoes with cleats and clip into your pedals. You can wear almost any kind of shoes, or no shoes at all. Adjust the arch straps and heel cups to fit your feet, and feel the comfort of your entire foot surface on the entire pedal surface.
Lightweight & Strong: Full-Foot Pedals are incredibly lightweight, strong and durable. Pedal platforms are reinforced with lightweight, high strength carbon fiber-epoxy composite material*, to efficiently transfer power from your feet to the pedals. Heel cups are made from color-anodized aluminum alloy. Arch and heel straps can be made from high strength nylon fabric, UV-resistant polyester seatbelt fabric, or supple “vegan leather” cork fabric.
*All Full-Foot Pedals are reinforced with carbon fiber-epoxy composite material, making them exceptionally strong, lightweight, rigid, durable, and able to withstand pedaling forces. However, carbon fiber can be damaged from sharp impacts and abrasion. Care must be taken when cycling to avoid impacts with hard or sharp objects that could damage the pedals. Cleaning dirt and debris from your shoes before cycling will also protect the pedal surfaces from scratches, wear and tear, and increase their durability.
Customizable: All pedal components (platforms, straps, and heel cups) come in a wide variety of vibrant colors you can mix and match to fit your personal style. Please select your favorite colors for your pedal platforms, arch straps, heel straps, and heel cups from the drop-down lists below. You can select arch straps and heel straps made from either nylon and polyester fabric, or cork fabric. Nylon and polyester straps provide a more snug, high performance fit, whereas supple cork fabric straps provide a more relaxed, comfortable fit. Nylon and polyester fabric straps are available in colors marked with 1 asterisk*. Cork fabric straps are available in colors marked with 2 asterisks**.
Enter Your Bike Shoe Measurements
Please measure the length of the soles on the bottom of your bike shoes, from the tip of your toe to the tip of your heel, with a tape measure. Please do not enter your shoe size, because your shoe size is not the same as your shoe sole length.
Please measure the width of the heels on the soles of your bike shoes at their widest point. Please see picture below that shows how to measure your shoe sole length and heel width.
Please enter your bike shoe measurements (shoe sole length and heel width) from the drop-down lists below. If your shoe length falls in between the 1/2" measurements, we recommend selecting the next size DOWN. As long as your feet are centered on the pedal platforms, it's OK if your shoes are slightly longer than the pedals. If your shoe heel width falls in between the 1/4" measurements, we recommend selecting the next size UP, to make sure your shoes will fit in the heel cups. That way, your Full-Foot Pedals will fit your bike shoes PERFECTLY.
Thanks for selecting Full-Foot Pedals for your trike. You're gonna LOVE riding your trike with the comfort, safety and performance of these innovative new pedals!
