I think you will find that some people prefer SPD type clipless, some prefer toe clips and some prefer plain pedals. The M324 (I have this on my foldup bike) gives you all options as do some of the others that have clipless on one side and plain on the other. On my touring bikes I have Ritchey V4 black MTB type pedals with springs set very loose for easy exit.
You will have to decide which you prefer. My only suggestion is to avoid the clipless type shoes that are hard to walk in. In other words, try out the shoes before you decide which pedals you want.
