So having decided to get on a bike for the 1st time in 15 years, i've bought a cheap reebok 'town and trail' bike. It's primarily for the commute along country roads on the 12 miles to work so should suffice for a beginner. My dilema is that i've got used in my spinning class to toeclips. After searching the internet I'm being bamboozled by shoes, cleats, tension and brand names. Does every shoe fit every pedal? Do the shoes come with their fasteners/cleats or do you buy them extra? Do they come in different 'grades' related to their ease of release?
As I say, i'm after the real beginner level, aiming to spend as little as possible for the next 6 months. If i take to it, more expensive stuff can go on my xmas list for Santa. Any reccomendations gratefully recieved. I'm a size 7.5 in normal shoe, but quite broad-footed.
Thanks in advance!
