pedals
#51
I have wide feet. GR9s and track pedals don't work for me. I use a comfortable pedal and am cognisant of my turns when riding fixed.
The most comfortable: MKS Sylvan Touring pedals with flip tabs, XL steel toe clips with sewn-on leather, VO leather toe straps
Close second: SR SP-11 (Lyotard Berthet copies - huge flip tab) with XL steel toe clips and VO Grand Cru leather straps. These new straps are the bees knees. The SP-11s have a ridge that accepts a slotted cleat, which is nice.

I'll second the SR SP-11 pedals, have them on two bikes and they are better for my feet than any other pedals I've got. One pair has SR plastic toeclips, and the other has MKS LL-Deep steel clips. The old Maillard road platforms work well also.
I also have Wellgo R025 track pedals with MKS steel clips on two bikes, but they are a bit narrow.
Also have a few pairs of Shimano 600/PD-A550 pedals but even the LARGE toe clips are much too small for me.
I used to really like the Ritchey Road Logic SPDs, but like to be able to get off and walk, thus clips and straps on all the other bikes.

Made the switch from track pedals with clips/straps to a cheap pair of platforms and a set of Burro reinforced straps. They're fun, comfy because they fit sneakers great, and super easy to get into (not that the tracks weren't). If you're putting them on a commuter I'd recommend these or something similar.
