Unless you have Ti axles...
Not a problem I'm likely to encounter though
In which case, a blob of glue, blu-tac or double sided tape will help
I'll echo the others, magnet on the pedal spindle. 12mmx2mm in case you are wondering.
Yep, agree with Bagpuss. I have a small neodymium (rare earth magnet - very, very strong) on the back of my pedal axle. Works very well indeed and near enough invisible.
Neodymium magnets are really cheap and available online in all sorts of places (including the usual eBay and Amazon).
If you look on eBay you'll find a magnet that will sit on the inside of the pedal axel, usually a bit cheaper than that and even more elegant. I've been using one for more than 12 months now, it's so strong that getting it off when I replaced pedals was a right pain.
