== alternative ==
* mount actual pedals to a set-up, allowing anyone to use same as on bike
** problem is accommodating the sideways torque
* standard thread for pedals is 9/16 20TPI, left and right; Park Tools sells taps
** think other [[tool and materials suppliers]]
* mount an axle to skewer actual pedals
** chances are tehre is no standard size for the axle - disassemble the pedals I have and check.
** how would this best be mounted?
