I need a pedal
How's that for an informative thread title? 
Basically, I own a standard mountain bike that I got off eBay last year. This one infact: https://mailordercycles.co.uk/product...s2p3094&z=2815
The pedal snapped on it today. The thread where the pedal goes into the pedal shaft (probably not the correct terminology) is completely worn down.
What do I need to get? A whole new front gear bit with the 2 pedals on? Or can I just buy one pedal from somewhere?
In case you haven't already realised, I know nothing about bikes.
I can post pics if that helps.
Cheers

You need to go to a shop and the the threads tapped. It shouldn't be that expensive. After that you can replace them with any set of pedals.
