Picture the classic household standoff. One person owns stiff-soled cycling shoes and wants to clip in. Everyone else wears sneakers and just wants to go. One bike, two camps, and a pair of pedals that can please only one of them. Dual sided bike pedals exist to end that argument. You get a clip-in mechanism … Read more

In plain English, spd pedals for spin bike setups are two-bolt clip-in pedals, built on Shimano Pedaling Dynamics, that lock a recessed cleat on your cycling shoe to the pedal. Your foot stays planted through every stroke. Because the cleat is recessed, you can still walk to the water fountain without skating across the floor. … Read more
