On my road bike I use 30mm Pedal extenders with Speedplay X2's. The shoes are Lake CX225's in 48 Wide.

All this work just great for my 6'4" frame with 13.5 EEEE feet and a lot of natural toe-out twist in my legs.

Shimano SPD-SL Ultegra pedals (6610?), and Simano R-130 road shoes. Got both for "steal" prices, basically allowing me to go "one model up" from what I would normally have bought.

Pedals - Shimanp SPD's - a set of 737's, I think, and a set of first-gen "road" style, meaning exactly like the MTB ones except one-sided. You know, the ones that are white and purple. Yeah, those.

As for shoes, they are some long-discontinued Shimano style that looks more like road shoes than MTB shoes, but have enough rubber on the bottom to be walkable. 2 pairs, same type of shoe - one pair white, one pair black. One of 'em needs to have some velcro replaced.

Looking through the various pedals, I'm guessing this is the set I have.

Shimano PDM324

I use one pair of shoes and similar pedals:

For the Mountain Bike, Crank Brothers Mallet C: https://www.crankbrothers.com/mallet_c.php

For the Roadie, Crank Brothers Egg Beater C: https://www.crankbrothers.com/eggbeater_c.php

Shoes: Answer Impact MTB: (On sale too, $60) https://www.jensonusa.com/store/produ...b+Shoe+06.aspx

The Answer shoes actually work really well with the shoes. Just make sure you use both shims.

As I'm new to road cycling would you all recommend a certain pedal for the newbie? I am also going to need shoes and what would you recommend there?

I was looking at the Crank Bros 5050. Any thoughts?

https://www.crankbrothers.com/5050.php

I am in the army and have had two ankle surgeries and have not been able to run for a loooong time. I am starting to ride to do some sort of cardio. I am afraid to go with clips because of the risk of getting my foot stuck, but I am looking for a solid pedal with a lot of room.

I upgraded to Shimano SPD M540 pedals both Road and MB.
I actually wore out some old Shimano 747's SPD after thousands of miles of use.

No complaints.
