I'm planning on doing a few races in the fall and starting to nose around for some used parts (saving a few bucks here and there). I will likely get some decent CX practice in, and then do 2-3 race, along with some gravel riding a little more frequently.

Is there a preferred pedal for racing/competition? I'm sure the pro's use a certain kind of pedal, so I'd probably look for the cheaper (heavier) version on secondary market.

thanks!
