I'd like to change this so that I don't have this experience again. What other pedals do you guys recommend? Under $40, I will be using cages with double straps as well as I commute with Vans shoes.

Thanks!
This occurs as a combination of:
- Low Bottom Bracket (like on a road bike) What frame are you using?
- Long crank arms (longer than 170mm) How long are yours?
- Wide pedals
- Cornering hard

3 of those are pieces of equipment.
