ABSTRACT:
An automatic pedal is composed of a bracket member adapted to be supported by the pedal arm of a conventional bicycle, and a peg member adapted to be supported by a conventional riding shoe. The bracket member has an aperture configured to receive the peg member and to secure the peg member to the bracket when the bicycle rider places the riding shoe in a riding position. The aperture is configured to release the peg member upon the riding shoe being turned out of the riding position. The peg member is provided with two mating portions which allow the riding position (the position at which the peg member is secured to the riding shoe) to be adjusted.
