New to clipless

Don't ever start learning how to ride clipped in on the street. You will inevitably fall over at the first busy intersection, while everyone laughs at you. Don't ask me how I know this.

I taught an ex ski instructor to ride clipless, she equated it with teaching newbies to put their skis on for the 1st time, she had no problems after a quick lesson and really SPD's are just like ski bindings IMO

yeah I fell over on spd's cuz they came set to 9 clicks so I set them back to 3 which I find good for newbies, I seem to end up running 5 or 6, if you don't move your ankle side to side you stay in the pedal no matter how many clicks you set the screw to

For MY knees I usually run the side to side float so I encounter resistance about 1" from the crank arm but YMMV, after getting the cleats where I want in the middle of the range of float and test riding my adj, I loctite the screws and crank them down HARD cuz I have had cleats loosen off so I was stuck in the pedal, only way to get out of the pedal was lay on the ground and take the shoe off

willington and hasting for me fell right over with a swagman trailer on the back out for a ride with the wife and kid LOL note to self back off spring tension and tighten cleats properly LOL

I'm a fan of clipless. I have 2 pairs of M545 and 2 pairs of M647.

This is the cheapest place I've found for Shimano clipless, cheaper than used.

I've been clipped in for about 8 months now after a lifetime on flats.

As a flappy footed rider who took his feet off the pedals all the time, it's taken me quite a while to make the change. I've admitted defeat a couple of times and put the flats back on, but i'm back on the clips again.

I've been using Shimano Trail pedals [HTML_REMOVED] some 5-10 Maltese Falcon LT's. The shoes are great, the pedals I think I could do with a bit more platform on, for those moments its not ideal to get clipped back in. I may try some Mallets with the pins wound right back next. Overall though I think I enjoy it more, having going through the period of pain of really struggling with either.

I'm back on clipless. I want to get more comfortable on techy stuff with it. I do prefer the feeling of being connected to the bike in most scenarios. I like flats too though. Nothing wrong with switching back and forth. Probably make me better in the long run.

And now I'm back on flats. Honestly I can make either work but I'm probably more aggressive and having a bit more fun on the flats. But for a long climb the clipless makes me smile. :idea:

so far i am enjoying clipless again rode Vedder 2 weeks before the race and said no way would i be comfortable clipped in gave it another go a week before and was still debating it , race i said the hell with it and ran them and was glad i did .

Well that's just like, your opinion man

I hope he gets an infraction warning from Cam over that. That kind of foul language just makes my skin crawl.

Anyone tried iSSi pedals: http://rideissi.com/

Lot's of colourways and apparently cheaper/lighter than Shimano XT M780s.

Hm, those are neat. I like the color options. How do they compare in price to comparable shimanos?
