Hello everyone!
First of all I'm new around here and new to mountain biking so go easy on me eh?
I've just bought my first mountain bike and went for my first ride unfortunately in the rain today! Having just bought my bike I'm still collecting gear along the way. Today whilst riding I noticed my shoes (just a pair of trainers) were seriously impacting on my speed not to mention grip on my pedals.
I just have the stock pedals that I bought the bike with. I've been looking at some new shoes 'Shimano XC50' but I'm a little confused about this clip less pedal system. Do these shoes require me to buy new pedal in order to ride and if so could anyone explain to me the options I have?
Any help greatly appreciated! :thumbsup:
