I’m thinking I’m in need of some pedals with slightly wider platform
Why do you think that.
I’ve got some, and some shimano DX shoes which you’d think were ideal for them. They’re useless, the platform just gets in the way of clipping in, on every other bike I be clipped in within a fraction of a second, with those it’s repeated attempts to kick the cleat down into the mechanism until you get it in.
The only pedals they made sense on were eggbeaters where the exposed mechanism was prone to being damaged, but I’ve never hit a shimano pedal hard enough to break it.
And you still can’t really ride them without clipping in (I’ve never found any clipped ‘trail’ pedal that worked as a flat pedal).
