In June 2022 we did a tour down the Canal du Midi in southern France. In June 2022 it was 105 degrees in the shade in southern France - fires breaking out everywhere - but we had already paid, so we went. Long story short, I got heatstroke and something called compartment syndrome, which resulted in an 18 day stay in a hospital in Carcassonne.
What’s my point? I now pedal with the ball of my foot on the right side, and closer to the arch of my foot on the left. So, since I have 170mm pedal arms… my right foot is happy but my left foot wants something a little shorter; maybe 165 or 167.5. Has anybody else here felt the need, or maybe used, asymmetric pedals - shorter on one side than the other? Is there a problem inherent with this (other than hassle of buying a new crank arm)? Is there some kind of out-of-balance load that will crack my bottom bracket shell or some such? Before I go off and buy a shorter Suguino XD2 crank arm, I just wondered if there are others who have had/solved a similar problem. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
