Could be. However, often pedals just fit tight in cranks, even though they are supposedly compatible.

This brings up another question: does anyone have a way to tell, for certain, if a crank or pedal thread is French or English? They are very close to the same pitch and diameter; even measuring with a micrometer doesn't seem to be conclusive.

In other news, weather in Long Beach: 58F & sunny at 7:30 AM. After breakfast, one of the Colnagos and I are outa here!
