I had a recumbent (RANS V-Rex) for 25 years. Recently switched to an e-bike and discovered I have slight balance issues, which resulted in several minor crashes. So I got myself a recumbent trike: used hp Velotechnic Gekko fx. Decided that was too much work so I put a motor on it. That works great!
Problem: my clips are worn and they don't hold my shoes reliably. I've slipped off the pedal, which is very dangerous on recumbents. I need to fix this before I ride over my leg and break it. I don't really want a new set of clips -- I'd rather not need special bike shoes.
I need something that prevents me from falling out of the pedal. The only things I can find are straps that go over your foot (doesn't prevent falling out), toe clips (useless for this need), etc. Does anybody know of something that would work? Maybe something that cradles my heel?
