Sku: AF6061/342
  • drilled the holes on the Tormach; need to set up the recess for the pedal piece, play with sprutcam to generate the g-code Template:TD Possum Lodge

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
  • 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?
