Guess who's thinking of going clipless finally?

Yep... Me.

I have my Roubaix at the shop for it's first tune-up. The one that comes free with purchase. After 650 miles or so, it was due.

So i'm thinking this is a good time to switch to clipless, because the shop said they'd give me a thorough fitting (saying it would take about an hour) with the new pedals on. The "fitting" they gave me when I bought the bike was a real quickie.

They also said my cheapo platform pedals were already wearing out (designed just to try out bikes on, actually). So I have to do something, so i might as well suck it up and go clipless.

They're recommending the Shimano 540 SPDs, since I already have (and like) my Shimano MTB shoes. The pedals are on sale for about $80, which I thought was high, but I'm finding that price or higher at places like Performance, etc.

Can you believe that DG is going clipless????
