Black VP BMX pedals with a large PP platform, in 1/2" or 9/16" thread. A flat BMX platform lets you put a foot down anywhere and step off quickly, which suits BMX, dirt jumps, pump tracks and everyday riding in ordinary shoes.

• Large PP platform
• Black
• 1/2" or 9/16" thread

The PP (polypropylene) body is light and won't rust, and it's cheap to replace if it's damaged in a crash. This listing groups the versions by pedal thread (1/2" or 9/16"); choose yours below.

Choose the thread to suit your cranks: 9/16" for three-piece cranks, the standard on almost every adult bike, or 1/2" for one-piece cranks, which are common on kids' bikes, older BMX bikes and some exercise bikes. A one-piece crank is a single steel piece running through the frame; a three-piece crank has separate arms fixed to a bottom bracket axle.

To fit, grease the pedal threads, start each pedal by hand so it doesn't cross-thread, then tighten it with a pedal spanner or the hex key it takes. The left pedal has a reverse thread, so it tightens anticlockwise.
