Want to borrow: pedal extenders
Jun 30th, 2014, 11:22pm
 
I'm looking to borrow a pair of pedal extenders now thorough Tour de Paris. I find the bb width on the tandem to be irritating my knee. The bb width on the Giro is greater since I changed out the factory bb and riding the Giro does not bother my knee a6 all.  So I think I need the extenders for the tandem.  I'd return them after TdP, unless you wanted to sell them.
Thanks!

I've got two sets, different lengths, you're welcome to try 'em out.  They didn't work for Terrie...

I use them on the tandem, and they work fine. Seem to help my knees there.  I'd consider a titanium set for the Encore, but so far that bike doesn't seem to need them.

I've still got a set or two -- I'll go home and measure what size they are.
