It's a weight thing, I presume. My Quattros are like that and I didn't discover it until they were delivered to my house. But, the further complication is that I used pedal extenders. It was either drill the extenders out or leave the pedal mounted to the extender. I chose the latter. You don't need to tighten them up. Normal riding will do that.
