Pedaling Innovations Catalyst £79.99
These pedals have an extended rectangular platform. The theory is that this supports both the ball and arch of your foot, giving more efficient power transfer on the ups and support on the downs. We were sceptical, but the comfy and supportive feel won us over. There are 14 grub screw pins on each side, with two lengths supplied. We found the 6mm ones too aggressive for the back of the pedal, but a combination of long at the front and short at the rear gave exceptional traction. It’s a shame the pins can’t be tightened from underneath, and they round off easily too. What’s more, discrepancies in the depth of the holes mean the pins sit at slightly different heights. While the execution isn’t the most refined, these pedals work well. If you don’t like them, you have the option to return them, used, within 30 days. www.streetmedia-distribution.co.uk
