If you ride your bike everywhere and make multiple trips per day, clips & straps are great because you can wear street shoes with them. Top-quality clips/straps/pedals will run over $100. Same for clipless, but you'll need special shoes. If you're not sure what kind of pedals you have, post a pic.


I take this to mean that you haven't touched them, assuming you meant pole. So why are you offering advice on them?
