I'm looking to get pedals with good cornering clearance, something such a this

The problem is that those pedals don't accept standard toe clips and I'd like to use something stronger such as steel clips to retain my feet. Does anyone know of any affordable pedals such as these which I can run with steel clips? I looked at vintage dura ace pedals but those are going for way to much. Thanks.

I have the second ones, and i can corner very well.

sylvans can be pretty unforgiving if youre riding in soft-soled shoes. i'd go with the gsr-9's.

deep_puddle

very true. if i wear moccasins it feels like im riding in socks. so i dont wear them.
have you tried the gsr-9's?

The gsr-9 will definitely help more if you wear sneakers or regular shoes. The platforms on them will be less likely to tear up the soles of your shoes. Plus, cornering clearance on them is just as good as the sylvan track pedals.

These are awesome! MKS Sylvan lites

gr-9 is way more comfortable than /\ sylvans
i rode the sylvans for a bit and they started digging into my shoe...not good
go with the gr-9 if you are going to be wearing softer shoes

you can get them in black too but they cost a little more

cheers

lol @ gsr-9. acura much?

Go for the GR9s, I have those right now and they're awesome. I have yet to get any pedal strike cornering and the platform is really nice even with really flexible shoes like sambas.

I have the GR-9s and they're super comfortable.

jpdesjar

GR-9s

i just pulled the trigger on some mks gr-9's, mks steel toe clips and a pair of mks fit a straps. after reading so much positive reviews on them i just had to give it a try for my new build. cant wait till they come it!

Supreme

the pedals arent completely lined up on the bottom, but i fixed it and now you can see them side by side more accurately.

Wow I think I'm running those MKS Sylvan Road's that I picked off a bike someone had abandoned in a bush with steel clips and leather straps. Only problem is the quill on one rusted to hell from not having an endcap and when i rebuilt it all the threads imploded, the nut is basically welded on there. Can you get new quills for these?

Supreme

just buy a new pedal? its only $30.

ShinyTravisto

Yeah, after lookin it up, true haha. Thought I might find a cheap fix though.
