geez saccy,
you're a hard man to get organised!......Ok the SPD thingys should actually be easier to clip into, cos you can 'get in' on both sides. The looks only have single sided entry. The SPD's will allow you to use MTB or touring shoes, cos the cleet fits inside the sole of some of these. This has advantages if you plan to do a lot of 'cafe racing' & walking in 'em. Downside, they look too much like MTB pedals for mine.....(the ones in the original link you sent) Given that you've ended up spending a few bucks on the bike....I don't think I'd spoil it with some 'el cheapo' pedals......worst case if you can't get a good deal on something better...take the freebies to tide you over & then start 'haunting' ebay for something a little better....theres plenty of 'looks' on there at present relatively cheap.....now JUST DO IT!
