Still new to the world of recumbents, wish I had taken the step earlier.
Have always used clipless pedals from their first introduction on road bikes. Later with the increase in mountain biking I more or less switched to using the more walkable friendly Time ATAC pedals.
However, since riding the recumbent I could feel some tenderness with the knees, similar to when I used pedals and cleats with very little float ( before Times).
I initially used my Time pedals and cleats , but didn’t feel that these offered the same degree of float in the recumbent position.
Fast forward to now.
I have bought a pair of Sidi road shoes and fitted the Speedplay walkable pedals with adjustable float.
A bit of a faff to set up correctly, but the float and action is very good.
Initially very stiff to engage the pedal and cleat, but getting easier with repeated use.
Anyone using the Speedplay pedals, or have similar experiences?
