How good are double-sided spd/flat pedals for city cycling?
I have a hybrid Genesis Day 02 which I use for city cycling and was thinking up replacing my flat pedals and toe clips with double-sided spd/flat pedals. Should I take off the toe clips with the new pedals?
Are spd's a pain for urban cycling?
I already have spd compatible Nike shoes so will have to buy the cleats as well. Should i go for multi-directional release cleats?
Thanks.
Since you already have the SPD compatible shoes the reversible pedals would be a good choice. One responder stated that the shoes would be hard to walk in but I believe he's got them confused with road pedal shoes which are, SPD's aren't, in fact some SPD compatible shoes are as comfortable to walk in as sneakers.
I agree with another responder who advised saving the extra money and getting the store brand pedals versus the Shimano. There may a slight difference in the weight and quality but for your use in city cycling the more economical pedals would be satisfactory as well as saving you few bucks. As another responder said, the cleats will come with the pedals.
I'd also take off the toe clips. My guess is that after you become comfortable with the SPD side of the pedals you'll be using them a lot more than you think and the toe clips will be more of a hassle than a help.
