At least if the power goes out in your house, your pedaling will still be OSHA compliant.

Cheaper to get something mass produced than the extra cost of getting custom made…

Makes sense, there’s no reason to make specialised pedals for a stationary bike. I’d say serious indoor cyclists would probably put their own road bike pedal on there.

I’d imagine it’s because it was cheaper for them. The ones with reflectors are probably mass produced, something else may have cost them more.

More accurate to say “my stationary bike comes with bike pedals”. Bike pedals come with reflectors.

Honestly feels like they just grabbed a box of generic pedals without thinking. At least you’ll be extra visible in your living room.
