    LOL Roadie Gal. I need at least the same amount of coffee before I start to become remotely human
    There are a lot of unwanted, unloved bikes out there - go on give a bike a good home

    My relatively new Trek 2.1 came with clipless pedals. Til I got used to all the OTHER features this bike had....I had some auxilliary flat pedals installed on the clipless so I could forget about pedals for awhile and concentrate on shifting and braking. Well....5 months later, I just had regular pedals installed with straps. I found that the clipless just added to my stress factor and having had 'cages' in the past on a mountain bike....I was more comfortable with something similar. I now ride....free from the fear of falling and breaking something and it's improved my speed and overall performance enormously.

    What it boils down to....is a personal preference. By all means DO TRY clipless....you might love them. I suspect you'll get a myriad of responses to this thread.
