Re: Clip in Pedals

I find the mountain bike style with the recessed cleats more comfortable but most serious road bike riders use the other kind. The mountain bike shoes tend to be softer but for that reason not as efficient as road bike shoes at transferring the force from your foot to the pedal.

Larry, I have shamano pedals that work with the recessed cleats. 
A lot easier walking when off the bike. 
If you need new shoes they are called mountain bike shoes that have the recessed area for the cleats. 
Good luck.

I have never owned clip in pedals and looking to upgrade to them now (before spring).

Can anyone recommend the best type or brand for a road bike?

Thanks,
