Hi girls.

Irulans poll has re-newed my interested in mtb and I've even gone as far as buying a couple of mags to see what kind of bikes they're got out there.

I have a question though. On my road bike I currently use Speedplay pedals but wondered what sort I should go for on my mtb.

I quite like the look of SPD platforms. I like the idea of a wide surface area while I learn some riding skills, and they also look handy for if I just wanted to jump on my bike and head down the shops without having to put cycling shoes on.

Any thoughts/ suggestions for this mtb beginner?
