Sierra Clutch Pedal RATIO [cable type]
Cobra289 - 2/11/09 at 07:04 PM

Hi,
Perhaps someone can help me.
I am looking for the distance between the pivot point of the pedal and the foot pad.
If I am right the pivot is the center of the quadrant that has a radius of 45 mm

So if you let me know the distance, I can calculate the pedal Ratio.

I am talking here about the Sierra clutch pedal with a cable system.

Best regards,

Approx 275mm from the quadrant center pivot to the centre of the pedal, HTH

Don't forget that if you want to adjust it later, you can just buy a different diameter quadrant. You probably know that anyway though.

No I didn't know that, I thought that every pedal did use the 45 mm quadrant.

I will not use the quadrant [plastic] but will integrate a similar design in my pedal.

The question arise, is the 45 mm quadrant the standard one?
