2. Some bicycles come equipped with pedals that have sharp and

potentially dangerous surfaces. These surfaces are designed to

add safety by increasing grip between the rider’s shoe and the

pedal. If your bicycle has this type of high-performance pedal,

you must take extra care to avoid serious injury from the pedals’

sharp surfaces. Based on your riding style or skill level, you may

prefer a less aggressive pedal design, or chose to ride with shin

pads. Your dealer can show you a number of options and make

suitable recommendations.

3. Toeclips and straps are a means to keep feet correctly positioned

and engaged with the pedals. The toeclip positions the ball of

the foot over the pedal spindle, which gives maximum pedaling

power. The toe strap, when tightened, keeps the foot engaged

throughout the rotation cycle of the pedal. While toeclips and straps

give some benefit with any kind of shoe, they work most effectively

with cycling shoes designed for use with toeclips. Your dealer can

explain how toeclips and straps work. Shoes with deep treaded soles

or welts which might might make it more difficult for you to remove

your foot should not be used with toeclips and straps.

WARNING: Getting into and out of pedals with toeclips and

straps requires skill which can only be acquired with practice.

Until it becomes a reflex action, the technique requires con-

centration which can distract your attention and cause you to

lose control and fall. Practice the use of toeclips and straps

where there are no obstacles, hazards or traffic. Keep the

straps loose, and don’t tighten them until your technique

and confidence in getting in and out of the pedals warrants

it. Never ride in traffic with your toe straps tight.

4. Clipless pedals (sometimes called “step-in pedals”) are another

means to keep feet securely in the correct position for maximum

pedaling efficiency. They have a plate, called a “cleat,” on the sole

of the shoe, which clicks into a mating spring-loaded fixture on

the pedal. They only engage or disengage with a very specific

motion which must be practiced until it becomes instinctive.

Clipless pedals require shoes and cleats which are compatible

with the make and model pedal being used.

Many clipless pedals are designed to allow the rider to adjust the

amount of force needed to engage or disengage the foot. Follow

the pedal manufacturer’s instructions, or ask your dealer to show

you how to make this adjustment. Use the easiest setting until

engaging and disengaging becomes a reflex action, but always

make sure that there is sufficient tension to prevent unintended

release of your foot from the pedal.

WARNING: Clipless pedals are intended for use with shoes

specifically made to fit them and are designed to firmly keep

the foot engaged with the pedal. Using shoes which do not

engage the pedals correctly is dangerous.

Practice is required to learn to engage and disengage the foot

safely. Until engaging and disengaging the foot becomes a reflex

action, the technique requires concentration which can distract

your attention and cause you to lose control and fall. Practice

engaging and disengaging clipless pedals in a place where there

are no obstacles, hazards or traffic; and be sure to follow the pedal

manufacturer’s setup and service instructions. If you do not have

the manufacturer’s instructions, see your dealer or contact the

manufacturer for advice.
