Here's a pic of the Whites with the BG steel clips on my Quickbeam: http://www.flickr.com/photos/37542...@n04/4411496143/sizes/l/in/photostream/ . I found the BG clips so large (leaving my foot so far forward on the pedal) that I had very significant toe clip overlap, so I took the clips off. But with the clips off I didn't like the Whites as much, so I'm now using Tioga Spyder pedals that Riv used to sell, which I like better than the Whites for this bike.

If no one else does in the meantime, I will send the pedal dimensions tonight. The Whites are not tiny by any standard.
