I have Candy SL on both my single and tandem bike and love them. I had tried other road pedals (747 & Coombe) but didn't like them nearly as well. As a matter of fact I didn't ride clipless for a couple of years after giving up on the 747's. I like the fact that you have small platform on the Candy and don't need to clip in right away. I just use cheap Performance mountain bike shoes, had to cut out a little tread to make them work better but that was it. When I first did start on the pedals, I put my bike on the trainer and practiced clipping in and out for about 20 minutes, they were a little stiff at first but my husband had put a little oil on them and they loosened right up. I have had NO trouble with them at all, don't ever feel like I could get hung up in them. You can always check out Mountainbikereview.com and look under Pedals and they have a list of just about all of them and people put in their comments, it's a very helpful site.
