• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Tricled large brake pedel

Hi all

i ordered one of these larger brake pedals and not sure I like it.... Unlike the OEM pedal that wraps around the bracket, the one tricled is selling has a 3/4 in steel base and the the pad. This moves the pedal which I feel is already uncomfortable even further back meaning you have to move your foot even further back to step on it....

has anyone else found this to be true? Is there anyone else making a better one?

The other ones are basically the same so if you don't like the one from TricLed then you won't like the other ones, the others are very similar in size.

OEM, TricLed, Big bike parts. Big Bike Parts not as thick.
 
Not sure...

Which is your ryde. Do you have floorboards etc. I made my own which just moved the original pad out and easy to reach. I have an extra one I made for a friend but he sold his GS...:thumbup:

I took my F3 to a local metal fabrication shop and had the pedal moved out so my foot sits along the "A" frame and I rotate my foot outward to brake. It's much more comfortable on my ankle.... Much nicer setup. :doorag::spyder2:

The Big Bike Parts brake pedal is made just like the OEM pedal and does not raise the pedal at all.
 
I like the larger brake pedal from TricLed. My only wish is that I could buy a brake pedal extension for our 2015 RT-L from somewhere, to move the pad maybe 2" further forward. Be soooo much easier on my arthritic ankle.

If I remember right I saw where someone had fabbed a homemade one, but, although it worked (I think) it did look .. home made.
 
I had a problem with needing custom length brake and shift linkages made from a #5 set to basically a #6 with another set of peg holes drilled for more leg room. After doing it, I didn't like the brake position at all, so had them reworked to include threaded adjustments to raise/lower the brake & shift lever angles. Now? MAGNIFICENT! Took some experimenting, but what an improvement. I bet if there was enough demand a certain garage that is all things SpyderLovers in Springfield Missouri might think about adding them to his list of goodies to offer in his toy store. I was desperate, and Lamont and Jacob really were a Godsend to help me solve my issue. And oh my....I fear the return visit to the toy store in a couple weeks; I know I won't have the strength to resist.
:riding:

Well, Big Bike got their pedal in stock and I have one in the mail? I am returning the Tricled version.. It is a well made unit, I am just looking for a lower profile replacement

Made my own adjustable linkage from the rod that came on the :ani29: from the dealer. Got it lowered down so it is comfy with my new foot pegs and stirrups. Also extended the pedal out to go with the longer pegs. The brake pedal is stock in this pict. Moved it out 25mm. The pedal still looks stock.
Love my Lincoln buzz box!
