There are pliable plastic tips for dowels (and other round things) that
you can get at hardware stores. They come in a variety of sizes. You
might be able to find one that is the right size to stick in the pedal.
Might have to trim it down a bit. Should work. Not sure how well it
would stay in place.

Ok, thanks everyone.

In reply to the duct tape suggestions, that was actually my first
thought, but because they are metal pedals and because of all of the
umm.. 'bumps' on the pedal, I don't think duct tape would stick very
well. Also, despite duct-tape working for fixing everything, I know
from experience that it isn't as usefull when it's wet.

I will head down to the hardware store tonight and see what they can do
for me.

Thanks again,

Ed

I use duct tape on the snafu's on my freeride... I lost the caps on both
pedals the day after I bought it and needed something to keep the mud
and sand out of them. Works no problems, but looks a bit hagged, but I
couldnt have it any ther way.
My brand new ipod (bought yesterday) has a duct tape case covering the
whole thing (other than dock, screen, hold switch and headphone jack)
which looks so sweet.
I use black coloured duct tape by the way

Hey there,

I'm sure that this is not a first, any ideas as to what i could do to
cover up the bearings?

Ed

Pedal protectors would do the job well, although you have to drill some
holes in Jim Cs to fit them. I'm now wishing I had done this as it
would have saved my relatively new Jim Cs from being trashed on
yesterday's ride. I smashed the cover and managed to break off the nut
underneath.

Pedal protectors are available from Unicycle.com, although the
Australian branch hasn't got them in yet. Postage shouldn't be much as
they are really light so you could order some in from overseas.

If it's a plastic end cap, it's probably a pretty similar size to most
pedal end caps , maybe the bike shop will have a different one that'll
fit.

Metal ones are harder as they have threads on so you need the right
one.
