I recently bought 2 XL single pedals. Had one for a few days before the other. I recieved the other today and can not get them equal. Starting looking at possible problems and found a few.
Under the footboard there are 2 washers on one pedal and none on the other. I took apart the hinge assembly and found the slow pedal assembly too big for the opening causing it to bind and thus stop sooner than the other. I got out the dremel and ground a bit of and it's better.
When they put it together(China or US?) they had to tighten down the screws since there was no washers and this caused the hinge rod to bend and that's what(I think) is causing the problem.
I did adjust springs exactly on each pedal, and lubed all pivot points just to make sure. I was thinking that I had just played the other and broke it in more...but dang if the springs stretch this much after a few days that's pretty weak as well.
Sometimes when you buy something that has rave reviews on quality it's a damn disappointment when something as petty as this happens.
Just thought I'd post if anyone has this problem and can't find the answer...check the heal area hinge
