VikB Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 (edited) I scanned the first few pages of this sub-forum and didn't see this topic addressed. If it has been just point me at the relevant thread. Until recently my V10F's pedals would stay up when I put them up and trolleyed the wheel around. Now one pedal will open on its own, which is annoying. I checked the tightness of the mounting bolts/axle and everything seems to be tight. Any suggestions for restoring the friction in the loose pedal so it stays up?

RockyTop Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Does it use a spring or magnet to keep the pedals up? I don’t think friction is the main retainer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikB Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 Solved my problem. I put the V10F on the work bench figuring I'd take it apart and noticed a small silver bolt on the bottom of the hanger [hadn't seen that before!]. Tightening that bolt adds friction to the footplate and problem solved! Sorry for the Doh! moment. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Well that was easy. (Proceeds to press "Easy" button.) If only all our problems would be so easy so solve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikB Posted April 8, 2022 Author Share Posted April 8, 2022 Definitely. I feel stupid for not noticing that bolt before! That said my V10F just works so I don't spend a lot of time looking at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
