Pedals again

[nickg]

Yet another post about pedals. But today took my first ride. I have got spd pedals with flats on them as I don't have any shoes. But I struggled finding the flats, so I'm thinking of going clipless anyway once I've got the money, but should I go double sided? I originally thought going single sided was the way, but after today I've changed my mind. So which pedals should I look at? I know everybodyis different, but if I get a few different ones to consider then I will. I've not got a deep pocket for these and shoes so need value aswell.

aye but with yours simon you buy cleats seperate ,mine are included for 20,buying cleats seperately is a more expensive way to do it.mine are cheaper

M520 indeed if not got loads of cash...even I can use them

What is it with flat / SPD Mix pedals, why are they always always the wrong way round regardless of which shoes you are wearing...one of life's mysteries I reckon

I bought some from CRC last September and they did come with cleats, but agree it's not clear on that link. To the OP - check before buying!
