I'm considering switching to clipless SPD pedals but I'm slightly concerned that going clipless can be bad
for your knees especially if you already have knee pain from old injuries or wear and tear. I've heard that
choosing a pedal with more float is better on the knees but I'm unsure which ones to go for and would
love to hear others recommendations and opinions on pedals they've used before I spend a load of cash
then find I've made the wrong choice.
At the moment I commute to work on a flat barred road bike and go mountain biking at the weekends.
Due to this I was considering a mountain bike pedal rather than a road pedal mainly so I could use one
pair of shoes for commuting and mountain biking and also the fact that most mountain bike shoes seem
to be better for walking around in due to the recessed cleats.
The pedals I've been looking at are the Time Atac range, Frog Speedplay and the Crank Bros Candy but
I'm open to any suggestions for others I should consider.
Any advice on making the change to clipless without ending up lying on the ground like a stranded turtle
with my feet still stuck to the pedals would be really helpful as well!
