As described above, the present invention provides a tread body with a tread surface extending in the front-rear and left-right directions on the upper surface only on the negative side of the pedal shaft in the radial direction, and the pedal shaft is inserted into the lower part of the tread body in the middle part in the front-rear direction. The pedal body has a shaft hole that freely rotates, and a pair of bearings that rotatably supports the pedal shaft, and forms a pedal body that has a protrusion that extends in the left-right direction and has a narrow width in the front-rear direction. A reflector is attached below the tread body and on at least one side of the pedal body in the longitudinal direction with respect to the pedal axis, at a position near the pedal axis closer to the pedal axis than the front and rear end surfaces of the tread body. Therefore, the distance between the pedal shaft and the crankshaft can be sufficiently large, and even when the reflector is attached below the pedal, the distance between the lower end of the reflector and the road surface, so-called road clearance, can be made large. It is.
