just managed to get hold of some hutch pedals
but they are the 1/2 splines
is there anyway of swapping the splines for 9/16?

?

Yeh,buy the same pedals with 9/16 splines and swap them over? I may be wrong but I don't think Hutch spindles are compatable with any others

if thats not an option i think there is an adaptor for 1/2 to 9/16ths you just screw it on.

cant remember who sells em but im sure someone will know

Or, find a local machine shop and have them make up a pair of spindles exactly the same in 4130 cro-mo using the ones you have as a template but have them cut the threads in 9/16's. A hell of a lot cheaper than buying another set of Hutch pedals. Probably get shot down for suggesting this but hey ho, remember if you ever sell the pedals, put the original ones back in, don't want to be arrested by the BMX Police

Just put my Crupi pedals against my Hutch ones and the axles are identical in lengths and they use the same bearings. Have alook at Crupi's website (or Customriders) for Crupi axle prices but I bet they won't be cheap.
