Triban 3

[mrandmrspoves]

yes my sister reckons i should expect 3 cliplles moments !!!

Just don't have a clipless moment at a roundabout/Junction/anywhere where a car is behind you!

Make sure you adjust the pedals to minimum resistance to begin with,and the art is that you twist your foot out from the heel to unclip. Well worth practicing out of traffic for a few trips before heading into busy places. Eventually it becomes 2nd nature and I wouldn't ride without them now.

After giving my Triban it's first proper run out last Sunday, I'm reserving judgement on the saddle. I've got big, wide feet so the toe clips aren't great but I like the way they keep my feet in the right place (I always used to ride with the pedals on the arch of my feet, lazy!) so I'm putting up with them for now until I get round to buying some clipless pedals & shoes.

Love the bike though, it's so responsive compared to my MTB .
