Anyone tried fitting Double brake pedals?
Hi,
Did one of you make this change ? double brake pedal, one for me (1,80m) and one for my wife (1,60m).
I am looking for the fastening system of the two brake linkages

Not sure what you are asking. I drilled my brake rod out and you could probably swap it from the OEM hole to your new one. If that's what you're asking. One set up for you to ride it, the other set up for her to ride it. Of course, when I was learning how to ride a bicycle, my dad made the pedal adjustment with wood blocks. Walmart sells a set for $10.

I haven't seen anything like that, but it looks good.

Is that a real photo or photoshop? I'm failing to understand the geometry of such a setup. The peg and brake farthest back would be for the short rider and the far forward for the tall rider, but I don't see how the rear pedal is going to clear the calf of the tall rider?

Please explain "double pedal" so we can be of more help. Do you mean that the brake pedal is too short? I extended mine by remounting it using only the outer hole on the lever and the inner hole on the pad. Works great and it's just the right length now. I placed the unused bolt in the unused hole to make it looked "finished."
