Wanted: Dual-sided platform pedals

[Batbike]

My 14 yr. old son is now riding my Giant hardtail mountain bike but needs dual-sided platform pedals, not my SPD's. Anyone have an old pair collecting dust they would consider selling? Thanks!

I might, BAT. I just took them off my hybrid before I sold it and have been using my Crank Brothers Candy C on the new bike. I have the pedals sitting on my shelf for "just in case." My Candies were my "just in case" pair though and now they are on my current bike. The ones I have are these Forte Campus Pedals. Is this what you're looking for?

Thanks! for the offer but those are still SPD pedals and I need the flat platform pedals -- no special shoes required.

So you want platform on both sides? The weight of the clip on the Forte's usually causes the platform side to always be up, anyway.

Oh ... looked at Performance site and feel that pedals like the Forté M1 Pedal would be best for my son. I was hoping someone had a pair they were not using -- I know I used flat pedals with straps before going to SPD. I put the pedals on the bike, taking off the straps, but the pedals are still only 1-sided and makes my son uncomfortable having to "flip the pedal" around. I want him to be comfortable and empowered to ride ... not scared. If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it!

Oh, I see. You just want regular platform pedals. Those definitely should be easy to come by. Good luck!

Thanks -- I guess I was making the description hard to understand!

Regular Platform Pedals -- yes!! that is what I am looking for!
