ndellar Jul 2011 8:51pm, 25 Jul 2011 1,573 posts	Quote Pin ndellar I've got these due to my muppetry with clipping / unclipping: chainreactioncycles.com one side = spd for bike shoes, one side = a normal pedal. My cleats are kind of recessed in the bike shoes I have so when I was less confident about clipping in / out I rode with one foot clipped in and one foot not to be able to easily put my foot down on the floor.

ndellar Jul 2011 9:04pm, 25 Jul 2011 1,574 posts	Quote Pin ndellar It's true. Now I'm used to it I feel a lot safer with both feet clipped in!
Covbaldy Aug 2011 9:44am, 11 Aug 2011 26 posts	Quote Pin Covbaldy Ok so if i wanted say tri shoes rather than full on bike shoes I just choose the said tri shoes and find some pedals and cleats and the cleats will fit to my shoes regardless of what make they are?

halfpint Aug 2011 10:01am, 11 Aug 2011 9,724 posts	Quote Pin halfpint Just into cycling too and have been confuzzled about this too. Cannot afford to get new pedals, cleat, shoes at the moment but eventually I'm sure I'll want to. How does this all work if you are doing a tri? Do you have to change into running shoes? My head hurts
