pedal set

just a quick question about the adjustable pedal set can anyone tell me what parts that contains?

Ill try and post a pic of mine tonight.

but basically its 3 laser cut pedals with welded eyes which you have a metal crush tube which inserts into them.
You also get the brackets to attach them to the chassis and the actual pedal faces with a threaded rod welded to it so you can adjust them for height.
also i specified a balance bar so the brake has the correct size whole cut in it to accept the balance bar tube.

tbh i wasnt too impressed with the pedal faces, seem a little small to me(?) but i can always make some new ones if i find i dont like them.

Sorry I cant help, but I have a related question, apologies if its a bit of a hijack, but hopefully whoever knows your answer, can answer my question too...

Can anyone give me the basic dimensions for the GTS pedals for a tandem mastercylinder? Ie critical lengths etc. I think the twin m/c version dimensions would be OK if no-one has the tandem ones...

Cheers,
David

Cheers Gav,

Bit of a stupid question probably....which is which? Top accelerator, middle brake, bottom clutch?

Pivots look in stange places thats all!?

Will mark up the dimensions I need, and email you the pic. Think I can work some out from that though.

Thanks very much indeed,
David

middle is definalty brake, i think the bottom is accelerator and top clutch, will have to see when i attach them

The brackets to attach it to the chassis are different lengths to offset the pivots so you can get the bolts through, which makes the pedals all the same height, although im still missing the brake bracket.
But i think i might make a proper pedal box rather than just attaching them straight to the chassis.
