I would like to try some road pedals and shoes on my new roadbike,i have Time Atac's on my mountainbikes which i like as my knees are dodgy,is there a similar road pedal(not too expensive!),thanks
I use mtb shoes with a carbon sole and speedplay frog pedals. Loads of float (feel very weird when you first try them) and you can walk properly
I don't ride for hours and hours but the cleats are a reasonable size so wouldn't expect major problems if I did
speedplay do make road pedals as well but I guess you lose the easy walking
similar situation, Time rxs work for me
I've just got some Time Xpresso pedals. The instructions suggest they have some float, but I haven't ridden them enough to tell yet.
Look keo with the red cleats. They have 9º of float and loads of movement.
3 knee ops and counting.Speedplays ftw.
I use the red cleat Keo's at the velodrome, however find the time rxs more knee friendly
I used to suffer with pain in my left knee for years using standard spds, i got some specailized insoles for my riding shoes..job sorted, probley cheaper than buying some new pedals aswell. worth a try..
And make sure the cleats are setup properly.
stiffer shoes and the same pedals or lighter versions? I run Mallets in the mounain bikes and candies on the road bike.
May also help to know what about your knees is dodgy? (not me but consult a professional on bike setup/bio mechanics)
I use 105s but i here speedplay are the way to go for ease of use an adjustability
My road bike's got Time Atacs on it, which makes things easy as so does my MTB 🙂
In all seriousness, why not just use Atacs if that's what your knees are used to?
