Having almost finished building up my first fixer ive just come to fitting my toe straps to pedals, having allways had flatties im a bit unsure exactly how to do this. I have some luvly MKS RX-1's, MKS toeclips and Fujitoshis straps....any help/pix would be most appreciated as i just want to make sure i do it the correct/safe way! cheers...

most people put a twist in the strap in between the underside of the pedal, have a look at some pictures on velospace or something...

the metal clip should face away form your shoe on the outside of the frame, the strap feeds through the loop on top of the clip and the two slits in the pedals... i dont know anything about twisting.

the twist is to stop it moving about as much, acts like a sort of knot to stop the clip on the strap moving up towards the top of the toe clip.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
