Most often referred to as
Safety Irons, but sometimes
also known as "Australian
Simplex" Safety Irons. This
design features a pronounced
loop, which should face
forward and be located on the
outside of the rider's foot.
It is designed to allow the
rider's foot to be easily
released in case of a fall and
prevent the rider being "hung
up".
To correctly
gaugue the correct stirrup
size, the rider should place
the ball of their foot on the
stirrup bars, close to the
inside, leaving a space of
25mm (1") to the outside.
Additional grip
may be offered through the use
of rubber treads that can be
fitted to the stirrup -
available for separate
purchase in
Black or
White.
