Yeah those are the pedals but Xpedo USA is supplying them so I'm waiting for them to come in stock or when the bike is ready I'll take the lightest thing they have. My girlfriend and I have light stiff XC shoes that we'd prefer to use for tandeming over our road shoes. I honestly struggle to tell the difference between my road shoes and SPD-SL pedals and mountain shoes with SPDs and for what we'll be using this bike for mountain shoes are nice. Also, the people who want to try it during tours will likely have SPD shoes.
