MKS SYLVAN GORDITO | Comfortable Pedaling with a Generous Foot Platform
A sense of security the moment you place your foot. A new standard in the SYLVAN series with a wide foot platform.
The MKS SYLVAN series has been a long-loved classic. The SYLVAN GORDITO inherits its timeless design while pursuing an even more comfortable pedaling experience.
"Gordito" is Spanish for "chubby." As the name suggests, while maintaining the same 94mm width as the conventional SYLVAN Touring, the front-to-back dimension has been extended to 85mm. This creates a spacious foot platform that firmly supports the sole of your foot.
From relaxed rides around town to touring with luggage, these pedals offer high stability when you place your feet on them, providing a sense of security during pedaling. They are Japanese-made flat pedals that combine a classic look with modern comfort, designed for long-term use.

Due to the large foot platform, pressure on the sole of the foot is dispersed, providing excellent stability even with sneakers. It is particularly well-suited for touring with luggage or leisurely rides enjoying the scenery.
Furthermore, because it uses MKS's traditional cup & cone bearings, it can be used for a long time with regular maintenance. It pairs well not only with classic touring bikes but also with chromoly bikes and commuters. It is a flat pedal that combines comfort and durability for long-term enjoyment.
