<p>A low profile bicycle pedal (12) having a pedal body (20) supported by a pedal shaft (22) to be rotatable about an axis (A) of the pedal shaft (22) and at least pair of clamping members (24, 26) attached to the pedal body for releasably coupling a cleat (16) of a cyclist's shoe thereto. Preferably, at least one of the clamping members (26) is pivotally coupled to the pedal body. The cleat (16) has a substantially C-shape with a pair of attachment portions (140, 142) for coupling the cleat to the cyclist's shoe, and a connecting portion (144) for interconnecting the attachment portions together. The attachment portions (140, 142) and the connecting portions (144) form a pedal shaft receiving notch (146) for accommodating the pedal shaft (22) when coupled to the pedal body. The pedal body is provided with a gap adjusting mechanism (32) for selectively increasing and/or decreasing the amount of play between the cleat (16) and the pedal body (20). <IMAGE></p> |
