Abstract
A bicycle pedal has a pedal body and a cage rotatably supported on a pedal spindle for supporting a rider's foot. The pedal spindle is fastened to a crank of a bicycle in a conventional manner. Preferably, the pedal body is a step-in pedal with a cleat engagement mechanism coupled to each side for releasably retaining a cleat of a bicycle shoe therein. The cage surrounds the pedal body and is coupled to the pedal body by a biasing member. The biasing member permits limited angular rotation between the pedal body and the cage such that the pedal body and the cage normal rotate together about the pedal spindle. An adjustment mechanism is coupled between the pedal body and the cage to change the angular position of cage relative to pedal body.
