SUNLITE MTB Clipless Pedals
Best entry level option for casual trail riders.
These pedals are the ultimate compromise for riders who refuse to choose between the efficiency of clipless systems and the freedom of flats. You get a rugged, dual-purpose platform that handles technical trails and casual commutes equally well, though you sacrifice the weight savings of a dedicated race pedal.
