Congrats! You're feeling more comfortable with a more stretched out position. The Amira is a super bike and one you'll be proud to own. I went clipless for the first time with my new road bike, and got the Speedplay Light Action (road pedals). A lot of people use the Speedplay Frogs on their roadies too (mountain bike shoes). They are very light, two sided so no fumbling for the correct side, and easier to clip in and out of than some other pedals. Have a good amount of float, too, so you don't feel locked in one position. I told my bike shop that if they could find me a shoe that didn't hurt my foot and a pedal that I could get in and out of with relative ease then I'd consider going clipless. Well they did, and I went clipless.
