Is there a gentler way to get into clipless pedals? I realise I may also have to purchase appropriate shoes that will fit the pedals. I'm really looking for a 'beginners' clipless pedal system that I can use more confidently without falling off my bike at traffic lights.
You can get these adapters if you don't want to buy another pair of shoes:
