Bikes: Stormchaser, Paramount, Tilt, Samba tandem

On my MTB, I have BMX-style alloy platforms with pegs. Can't remember brand, got them at the REI garage sale. Nevertheless, I love them. I have this bike set up to be the friendliest for just getting on without thinking about it. Rubber cruiser pedals might be even easier but not as supportive.

On my Paramount I have Sylvans. I was looking for something that looked like a quill but was 2-sided and didn't need a clip. I didn't like them, in the end. They are too narrow for normal shoes, about the same as the standard sized Campy quills they replaced. I wish I'd bought the Touring version which looks a half inch wider. But I'm no longer using this bike for commuting and I'll probably replace them with clipless.

On my Super Sport I have gigantic touring pedals that were a factory option. They are "KKT RT SF," like these, according to @Metacortex. I rebuilt them at the same time as the BB. I'm liking them but I probably can't keep them forever, as one has a bent spindle. If they go out then they'll likely get replaced with some green BMX pedals or I'll hunt up an eBay replacement. Mine do carry toe clips and I run them without straps, just to place the foot.
