A bicycle pedal mechanism that is free of any hook-like toe support includes a pedal that is rotatable about an axis, and a strap that is apt to receive the foot or footwear of a bicyclist; the strap is connected to the pedal at a predetermined spacing from the axis in a measured direction that faces away from the toe; and there is provided a pedal extension that is secured to a rear portion of the pedal; so that any torque generated by an upward movement of the pedal about the axis is taken up by a rearward portion of the foot or footwear through the pedal extension. |
