<p>A bicycle pedal assembly is provided attaching a shoe thereto via a cleat. The bicycle pedal has a pedal body rotatably coupled to the second end of the pedal shaft for supporting a cyclist's foot. The pedal body preferably has a pair of side portions, a tubular portion extending between the side portions and a pair of cleat engaging members pivotally coupled to the side portion. At least one spring is coupled between the pedal body and each of the cleat engaging members. The springs are mounted on pivot pins that extend between the side portions of the pedal body. The ends of the pivot pins are preferably located in unthreaded blind bores such that the pivot pins can freely rotate relative to the pedal body during movement of the cleat engaging members. One of the side portions of the pedal body is removably coupled to the remainder of the pedal body for easy assembly and disassembly of the pedal. In other words, to adjust the cleat engagement force of the cleat engaging members, the springs are replaced with weaker or stronger springs.</p> |
