Trek 400 petals
Can someone tell me if the cranks on a Trek 400 have 9/16 threaded petal holes . I am thinking about buy this bike but wish to replace the petals with a petal that has SPD cleats. I understand that there currently are two "sizes" of petal threads 1/2 and 9/16. But I don't know what the standard size was when this bike was marketed. Mid 80's I think.
Thanks |
They are 9/16"-sized pedal threads. That's pretty much the standard on road bikes. Half-inch pedals will be on one-piece cranksets and some BMX bikes.

Thanks EDIT: Beat to the punch. |
Did old cheaper road bikes with the forged one piece cranks use 1/2 I wonder, like the schwinn varsity? Not that I'll ever likely come across such a bike set up here in Canada, although CCM did produce its first 10speed road bikes in the '60s with one piece cranks, but I've yet to come across one.

I'd leave the petals on the plants. :D
What these guys said. Unless you have a French crankset (almost 0% chance of that), 9/16 is the size. |

Not to worry. We had a faux winter. I road all year here in Bahstan and only xc skied one day in the local woods. Horid xc ski year. Roads are dry today and its in the 40s. That's good enough!!!
