Pedals

[Bealz998]

I have a Carreras tdf with the horrendous to clips on so I really need something else . I use my bike everyday to working back and it's a 5min ride each way so I don't want to buy pedals which you have to always clip into as I will wear normal trainers for work and back but when I go out on the weekends I will then need tobuy some shoes to fit the pedals help please

There are touring pedals that have a flat pedal on one side and an SPD clip on the other. Best of both worlds.

Can you not just remove the toe clips?

You can get pedals with clips on one side and normal flats on the other side.
Or if you don't want clips or straps of any sort get a pair of these http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._productId_566835_langId_-1_categoryId_273937

I have removed the toe clips but I want some better pedals as they are tiny

These? Full size flats with SPD clipless too

@jefmcg has done a LOT of miles on hers!

I have the A600 touring pedals, very uncomfortable with trainers, being small they dig in. And being single sided, they can be frustrating when clipping too! Look good and light though. Not sure I'd spend £60 on another pair however!

Ah right, wasn't sure as didn't know what the stock pedals were.

If you want clipless ability, (as an option), go for something like MikeW-71 or vickster linked too, alternatively if you just want flat standard pedals have a look HERE.

Ooh, I got mentioned!

Yup, they are mine. I've done approximately 8,399.7km on them (thank you strava!), and they are great. Ironically I don't think I've used non-clip shoes after the first week I got them, but they do work well.

Shimano M520's in that case, cheap as chips and work brilliantly.
