Hi guys,
I need to get new peddles for my Kona dew.
I was cycling this morning and got to close to the kerb, the peddle hit it and tore like tin foil.

Is there anything I need to know about replacing peddles?
Are they all a uniform size? Or do sizes differ like the saddle stem?

Thanks

    Some pedals are 1/2" thread, but that is really rare now, most are 9/16's, however the Dew has been around as a name for a while, what year?

    Note, pedals have one left hand threaded and one right!

    Thanks for the reply.

    I think its a 2009.
    I take it they should then be 9/16's?

    Yes they'll be 9/16's.

    Be sure to ask for pedals and not peddles ........... :wink:

    half of them are even more stupid than you first thought.
  • Wide range of pedals out there. Pedal refelectors show up real well.
