Because of my achilles I am installing platform pedals on the bikes I am riding. Works and feels great, being able to move your feet wherever.
Safety Issue: I put some platforms on the Argon E118 and rode this morning. The zero stack part was awesome, felt like a bigger bike and gave me more room to generate power (I have long legs, M frame). I knew the pedals were wider, however it still got the better of me - I dove into a corner and grounded out! Bit unnerving but no crash.
So that doesn't work. Therefore I am going to try out an idea I have had for a year. To build a low profile, zero clearance, zero drag, tri-specific "clipless" pedal today. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.
