Bicycle pedals: clipless and flat - MTBIKER shop

Choosing the right pedals for your bike is essential for a comfortable and efficient ride. The first step is to decide between flat or clipless pedals. If you're an experienced cyclist, clipless pedals offer better power transfer and efficiency. However, they require special cycling shoes. Flat pedals are suitable for casual rides and for beginners, but also for bike park riders and for situations where you need to take your feet off the pedals frequently or „jump“ off the bike. These pedals are suitable for regular shoes. Look for flat pedals with grip-enhancing features such as cleats or textured surfaces, especially if you'll be riding in wet conditions or off-road. Modern pedals are made from durable materials such as aluminium, titanium or carbon composite. These materials provide a good balance between strength and weight. It doesn't matter if you're a fan of foot pedals or platform pedals.
