Every “mountain” bike style pedals that either came with 14″ or 20″ bikes, had no ridges or grooves on the pedals for shoes to grab onto. After searching all over Amazon, I came across these pedals that would fit onto my son’s 20″ smaller frame bike, so I ordered these up. Shipping took a bit longer than I would’ve hoped (about 8 days), but once I got them I could immediately tell the pedals themselves were larger than what you see on most kids’ mountain bikes, but it had the 1/2″ threads on it.After my 7 yr old has been using these pedals for the past couple of months now, I can tell these are a HUGE improvement over what he had before on his bike – the original slippery plastic pedals. These pedals are wider so there’s more room for his feet, and that’s good for him since he’s been learning to stand up and pedal more now. The grip on these pedals is really noticeable and I don’t ever see his feet slipping off anymore like they used to before.Great pedals at a good price. With they could’ve offered some in metal in a 1/2″ size, but these are the next best things.
