I used to be a MTB rider but when I moved to San Diego became a road rider in a MTB. I decided I should buy a road bike and I just got a Fuji Roubaix Pro.
I was planning on getting SPD MTB pedals, since I already have the shoes and I'm used to this kind of pedals. The guy at the store said he wouldn't recommend it. ¿Was he just trying to make me buy new shoes and pedals? or will using SPD mountain bike shoes and pedals really affect my riding?
I am not a high performance rider, nor into competition. I just ride for exercise, and do so every weekend for about 30-50 miles.
What's your advice?
