I have a hardtail mountain bike, flat pedals, and a road bike, clipless pedals, and the bottom of my feet hurt when I cycle. I can't bike to work more than 2 days in a row as my feet hurt too much. I switch up the type of shoe I use between a stronger and more flexible sole, but it makes no difference.
I can't understand it.
I've done some research, and these giant pedals seem to have a bit of a cult following which help with injuries. They're called "catalyst pedals" from pedaling innovations. They're a bit expensive, but I'm desperate at this point.
To me it makes sense to have a bigger pedal surface area so that most of my foot is on the pedal, maximizing contact between my foot and the pedal, rather than only limited contact where all the pressure is being applied, creating hotspots.

Have these pedals on my mtn bike and love them.
