re Bensport Pedals.
We are not altogether pleased with our arrangement of pedals on No.2. car. To improve them still further we have produced LeC.3458, which we send you herewith.
We think it very desirable to lengthen the flat in the well to make it more comfortable for the heels of the driver.
Raising the flat of the well has made it necessary to raise the pedals on the holders, by making new pedals plates.
