Hello Bike Forums!

im new to the cycling world. I'm a 26yr old slightly overweight male. i've been riding my stationary bike for about 3 months now (5 days a week)

my uncle is a cycling fanatic. he's 76, was an authorized distributor for Pinarello and rides about 200km 3 times a week. needless to say he's my inspiration here.

i've gone out and picked up a 2nd hand Trek 1.2 road bike for $600cdn and i'm anxious to get started.

only thing im missing is pedals. anyone have recommendations for a set of pedals that won't break the bank?

Cheers!

Hello Cowboy, Welcome to Bike Forums.

Many types of pedals out there.
What are you looking for?

I ride with toe clips no straps.
