Has anyone added adaptive pedals(velcro to keep feet on pedals)? Wondering how low to ground pedals are-if i added adaptive would they scrape ground?

Sorry, I can't help you. I bought the trike for my great-grand-daughter's third birthday and she has never had a problem with it. P.s. she absolutely loved it - forgoing all other gifts and headed directly over to it and started peddling away. It was pink of course

Daviana,I ordered a 185 micro but they were out of them and upgraded me to a 200 and yes it came with a foot pedal and stick option.

No they will need a special shoe. The normal shoe is a lot wider then this pedal. If you are looking to just use normal sneakers some stores sell these clips that you shoe actuall fits in and that is what I had prior to these pedals. I will say that since I have converted to these, I wonder why I did not do this before, they make such a big difference.

You could probably adjust and find a way to make it work if you need to do this. I personally never use my left foot in this manner, but I am sure you will be able to work it out. It's a great pedal, you just need to get used to the feel of it, as it doesn't feel like a normal pedal, at first it feels strange that you don't even notice pressing it down, but after a few days it felt great for me! I love this pedal!

The foam is cut pretty snug for a normal size pedal. I had to cut mine to fit a double size pedal in place. You can buy more foam and make new custom cuts or use the Velcro with no cuts.

The pedals have clips on one side and clip-less on the other. The clip-less side are for the smaller mountain bike cleats. Unless you have a mountain bike or hybrid that has the clip-less pedals I would stick to just using running shoes with the clip side of the pedal.

No the pedals that come with this stationary bike are the ones that have the toe guard and tightening strap that binds around your foot and shoe. But i looked on amazon and there are lots of options for the clipless pedals you may need and can change these out. Because it is really a great bike , and great price. We upgraded the seat on ours and we love it. Hope this was helpful.

There are no places for straps on the pedals and I doubt velcro would hold up. Would suggest the local bike shop as the connecting threads on the pedal bolt appear to be standard.

Unfortunately, no. I tried putting a pair of regular, toe-clip bicycle pedals on mine, but of course the pedals won't fit. Platform pedals work reasonably well, but straps/toe clips would help.

May not be the most popular answer but on my homemade pedal board I just used velcro to attach the power supply to the bottom. Also if there are screws on the bottom check out this method:http://xmidi.com/bicycle-chain-links-as-velcro-alternative-for-guitar-pedal-board/I have used this to attach pedals to my board and it is rock steady.

It is, David! You get a few good sized rolls of velcro, and it gives you the option to cover the entire frame of the pedalboard (which I did) or you can place the velcro only on the areas of the frame where you want to place your pedals. I decided to cover the entire frame in case I wanted to change the order of my pedals on the fly without having to worry about having extra velcro on hand to cover a new/uncovered area. All in all, I covered the entire frame and the backs of 12 pedals (inlcuding some big ones like a Carl martin Octa-Switch) and still have two untouched rolls of velcro in the pedalboard road case. Awesome purchase. You won't be disappointed.www.awaitrescue.com It is, David!

I tried J. B. Robert's suggestion of using a sandal (Nike Brand athletic type that strap over toes and around ankle) strapped to the pedal using the pedal straps and it works really well. I can work to exhaustion with no issues. On a side note, be careful tightening the straps as I broke mine the other day which prompted me to try J. B. Robert's route.

Is it possible that they used to have this awesome and obvious amazing feature, and discontinued it in the newer model? When I walk at an adult's pace now, my toddlers little legs have to work like crazy to stay on the pedals. But we used to have one almost identical (the handle bars didn't join in the middle) that would click but let the kid rest her feet on the pedals without moving...

Hey Paul, I bought two sets of these pedals for my beater road bike and the bearings didn't last 100 mi. in either one before they started making noise. They both went onto the trash. I've got no idea whether they are compatible with foot straps. Spend a little more and get a better pedal. regards, Dave

I've had no problems. The foot pedals are a little bigger than my recumbent bike. I really like that. In fact I haven't found anything I don't like about the bike.

I removed the thread and i later removed the attachment to the pedals because it was difficult to remove my feet and place it on the ground when I brake. The spikes on the pedals can be dangerous to the ankle, but it makes for a better grip when climbing heights with the bicycle. To tread the strap through the buckle, just follow the diagram and place it within the holes and fasten the tread to fit. Good luck

Any pedal assist is on/off...you need a interactive controller to set the varying speeds. If you bought one compatible with the controller (i don't know if there is one) it would work.
