    I bought a new road bike for training fro my first Tri last year. At the time of purchase I got clipless pedals put on the bike to go with the new bike shoes etc. The thing is now I want to start using the bike for commuting & don't want the hassle of bike shoes etc. Is it feasible to change pedals regularly i.e. Clipless for weekend & normal ones for midweek? Is there any such pedals that work for both? :confused:
    Thanks

    You can get SPD pedals that have the clip on one side and regular pedals on the other. The shoes have a recessed clip in so you could use them for commuting as you can walk around in them.

    I got pedals in cycle surgery in Dundrum that are both the clip and normal (i presume its the SPD one mentioned above - i've forgotten the name but that sounds familiar)
    i think they cost me about 45 quid and i have used them in 4 tri's this summer and i also cycle to work every day. They work fine with normal runners and have decent grip on them

    it feels a hell of a lot different though going from shoes clipped into the pedals to cycling with no support or hold on the pedal

    Edit : just checked and these are the ones i got : http://www.cyclesurgery.com/shimano-m424-mtb-spd-pedal/pedals/bikes-components-bikewear/fcp-product/14836

    No complaints at all so far
