It is ..clip on pedal not a toe clip on the pedal and thus pedals become clipless !

Single [b]Speed[/b].

You can travel at a wide range of speeds, on a bicycle with only one gear.

All bikes would then be called "infinite speed" bikes.

Wikipedia says:

Clipless pedals (also clip-in or step-in) require a special cycling shoe with a cleat fitted to the sole, which locks into a mechanism in the pedal, holding the shoe firmly to the pedal. Most of today's clipless pedals lock to the cleats when stepped together firmly, and unlock with when the foot is twisted outward. Clipless refers to the lack of an external toe clip (cage), but not to be confused with platform pedals without toe clips.

On the shoe you'll find the cleat, not the clip. Clipless refers to the lack of external cage.
