I have size 12 UK and also felt that on Vaults and Unites my feet wanted to roll off the edges at times. Never actually happened but felt like it and lost a foot in the tech occasionally although possibly not related to pedal size. Just got a pair of Chromag Daggas, only one ride so far but my whole foot feels properly supported for the first time. They are wider than the Pedalling Innovations and I prefer width to length, so to speak. Ahem.

They are superbly made, first pedal strike on rock will be upsetting

I am US 11.5 and use PNW Range pedals which are composite. They do make an alloy version called the Roam which are well priced. I've tried several different flat pedals and these have been my favorites (for the record Crank Bros Stamp 1's were my absolute least favorite). They are thin but large so pedal strikes are minimal.

Changed from DMR Vault to Deity TMAC. Quite long and concave giving stacks of grip, can't fault them. Seem to get less pedal strikes than with the DMRs but that could be my imagination.
Just gave some Bergtec Penthouse MK5 pedals (limited edition colour, naturally ;) ) to my wife for her birthday. Rode her bike (Trek Rail) after putting them on and have to say I was very impressed. Not as much grip as my stupidly grippy Deity Tmac's but pretty near, and beautifully made and well designed to minimise pedal strikes. I have UK size 10.5/US size 11.5 feet.

One up flat pedals is one of the biggest in my opinion

I saw thar RF recently released new Atlas AM22 pedals which they claim are now larger at 118 x 120. Looks like another contender in the large pedal market.

Could you all indicate the size (W x L) of the large pedals you recommend to get a better idea?

At 118 x 120 they make my Deity Tmac's 105 x 110 (W x L) look small! :LOL:

Any recommendations for flat pedals for those of us with larger feet? I'm a UK size 12 - 13 (depending on the brand) and ride flat pedals. I find I am constantly having to adjust foot position to avoid coming offthe edge of the pedal.

My normal bike is fitted with One Up Alu pedals and they are great but I can't fit these to the e-Thriteen carbon cranks on my Rail due to the crank boots. I'm aware One Up make their pedals in composite but I would like to stick with Aluminium pedals if possible (they look better!). There are a bewildering variety on the the market so I'm wondering what you guys think are the best options. Pedal width is a bit more important for me, although the length is obviously a factor too.
Crank brothers stamp 2 here large. Size 12. They do have pins rather than studs I find the pins actually stick into the soles of 5 10 shoes so I use ride concepts shoes with them.

Can probably screw the pins an a bit
