I'd like to stay away from having to get clip-in pedals and shoes, because I want to be able to get off the bike and walk around. Thanks in advance!
9/16" refers to the size of the pedal wrench needed.

The two standards are 9/16th, and 15mm.

9/16th is typical on beach cruisers, etc.

Almost all road bikes, including your CAAD 9 use 15mm pedals.
