Lets read about pedals (8)
I believe the answer is:
treadles
'pedals' is the definition.
(I know this)
'lets read about' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates anagramming the letters.
'lets'+'read'='letsread'
'letsread' anagrammed gives 'TREADLES'.
(Other definitions for treadles that I've seen before include "Levers operated with the foot" , "Machine parts" .)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
