Oh, so that's what I should've done with the step-through Bridgestone hybrid whose saddle kept escaping.... (That was the bike that ended up hurting my hands, and I sold her to a taller friend. Then the whole bike ran away. I think she just wasn't happy, y'know? Maybe she was pining for the Velodrome.) ...it's not pinin', it's bleeding demised...

Going back to my OP... Somebody's on the right path: Quote: Pub Pedals converts eggbeaters into flat pedals
Anyone who rides with clipless pedals has ridden on them with street shoes. While pedals with a large platform aren't too dangerous to ride for short distances, smaller-platform pedals aren't so safe — especially if you're coming home from the bar. Enter Pub Pedals, a project by Jeff Thom that converts crankbrothers' eggbeaters into big flat pedals.
Thorn is looking to the crowd-source fundraising site Indiegogo to bring his pedal covers to market. The listed price there is $27, and final retail price will likely be close to that.
“The reason I started with eggbeaters was that they are what I ride and they're a very popular pedal,” Thom told BikeRadar. http://www.bikeradar.com/news/article/pub-pedals-converts-eggbeaters-into-flat-pedals-36439/

I now have a pair of CB Mallets I would like to part with. Only a handfull of uses.
Why? Shifting to TIME pedals.
