Ergonomic adjustment system for a clip-less bicycle pedal

摘要

An ergonomic adjustment system for clip-less bicycle pedal has the cleat and pedal body are so shaped that they form exactly complementary shapes that are based on parts of spherical shapes such that both spherical members and complementary spherical members have similar diameters so as to allow for perfect mating between the two which allow for smooth fluid movement along axes X and Z. The cleat and pedal body have polymer lining. A rigid front receptacle and a rear flexible blade or traditional rear mechanism. Both the rigid receptacle and the rear section flexible blade or traditional rear mechanism are attached to the exterior periphery of the pedal's body and are used in conjunction with a cleat which is mechanically attached to a shoe. An adjustment screw pushes on the rear flexible blade section to give the right distance with the front receptacle and thus gives the correct tension to the cleat and to the rear flexible blade or traditional rear mechanism section.
