Yep, mine're D/G. That's French for R/L, right?

So French threading limits selection? I can re-tap my arms for more standard threading? I've used left-hand taps before, they're out there but not as expensive critters as I remember them being; Amazon has a set of proper taps for ~ US $20.

And pardon my use of 'clips' when I meant 'clipless' technology! REI's telling me 'clip' means cage & strap. Clipless is an interlocking tech that wasn't around when I bought this bike. I don't want simple flat pedals, I'm using those right now.
