Choice of 2.... Help

[stevey]

Any flat pedal should do, your LBS should be able to help you out If you think you may go clipless, you could alternatively go for a mixed SPD/flat touring pedal like the Shimano A520 http://www.wiggle.co.uk/shimano-pd-a520-touring-pedals/

So i should be able to use these with karrimor trainers?

Are they very grippy? I have no idea what Karrimor trainers are like? Walking shoes?

They'll be better with a smooth sole, I'd just talk to the LBS, then they can fit them too for you

Erm, some of us only manage an average of 14-15mph on a roadbike

Some of us manage even less

Okay thanks for the reply's and help just got back from testing both bikes at lbs was on both for around 30 min have to say the focus celebro 5.0 while it was nice and had a nice groupset (as mentioned) the revenio 1 for me just edged it.

Wasn't to sure at first about the 2300's but it turned out not to be a problem combined with more relaxed geomentry of the frame to me was more comfortable.

So bike is ordered and paid for (thanks mrs stevey ) should be ready for tue/wed another day off work to go and collect it got a couple of extras thrown in http://www.cyclelife.com/Product.aspx?pc=2&pt=91&pg=10426 and these for rainy days http://www.wiggle.co.uk/sks-bluemels-road-mudguard-set/

Overall happy if had more money then yes i would have pushed the boat out but for what i will do on it and my needs it pretty well meets my expectations.

Once again thanks for all comments and suggestions .

As i will not be having spd's/clipless (yet) can anyone suggest some pedals that would be ok for the new bike??

Just in and read this. Glad one of the bikes felt right for you. That's the most important thing.
Recommend the DMR V8 flat pedals. Nice and grippy with trainers until you decide if you want to try clip less later.
