Hi everyone!
I bought my first mountain bike not too long ago, and would now like to exchange the regular pedals with pedals that are regular on one side and clipless on the other side. I found the Nashbar Rodeo Pedal (SPD) for $20 online. While searching for reviews, I came across the owner's manual, which says: "
Use only Nashbar Rodeo Cleats (NS-ROPC) with your Rodeo Pedals. Other cleats will be incompatible, and unsafe". (

I have Shimano cleats. Will they really not work with these pedals, or is this for legal reasons, or do they just want me to buy their products?
Thanks
