Pedal sizing

Tacowhip1681 · 12-03-2014, 07:32 PM

Get guys, forum and bike repair noob here. I picked up a 1994 gt performer (always wanted one when I was a kid). The pedals are in bad shape and need to be replaced. I've done some research and 1/2 and 9/16 are the common size of pedals based on 1 or 3 piece cranks. I've measured the diamater of the threaded end and it's neither size. Anyone know off the bat whit size runs on my gt? It's bone stock btw.

If it has one piece cranks, it's 1/2", if it has three piece cranks, it's 9/16.

FYI that the left pedal has reverse threads. Be careful which side you put the pedals on and which way you tighten.
