first pair of clippless pedals
 

I just got my bike a 2010 specialized allez steel I only have about 200 miles on it and I want to get clipless pedals and would like some help finding a good entry level(A.K.A cheap) set of pedals thanks in advance for the help

Speedplay and Shimano seem to be the biggest. You'll get a different answer from everyone. Just pick a decent pair (Shimano 105's?) and try and see if you like em. I've been using mine for 2 years now :)

Edit: You probably don't want to cheap out on the places your body touches the bike. ie. pedals, saddle, and handlebars. My .02

My wife has had some problems with pedals and I finally put her on a set of Crank Brothers Candy pedals and MTB shoes. They aren't the cheapest, you can enter the pedals from either side, and she can walk comfortably in the MTB shoes. Just keep in mind that they all take some getting used to.

Tober thanks for the advice and I should have specified that( by cheap I did not want to just look for the cheapest thing they have but for a good pair of pedals that will weigh more and just save some money that way I will look at speedplays and shimanos I was also looking into Look do you have any experience with them?

I bought my road bike, got some SPDs and MTB shoes so I could walk around. I liked that just fine, but when I purchased a MTB I bought some road pedals and shoes (for the road bike) and I went with Speedplay Zero's. I like them. They're a little tough to clip in to, but I assume its because they're so new and/or I need to adjust the cleat a little; haven't really looked at it yet.

I found that the SPDs kept my foot pretty still and had a small area (the one I got; shimano), and the free float of the Speedplay took a short time to get used to but I enjoyed the large hard surface to put more power to pedal. Good luck.

The only pedals I've owned are Shimano 105's. They've been great so far. They can be had for less than 100. Try ebay and Probikekit.com.
Wouldn't be a bad time to pick up a pedal wrench either. Doesn't cost much and can be pretty helpful when installing a new set. Just don't forget some good waterproof grease on the threads!

My wife and I both have Look Keo pedals, we have been happy so far with them. The ones we got (not the easy, but the next one up the expensive chain) run about 120 a pair at the LBS. I think the more important part of the equation is the shoes, get shoes that make your feet happy. Also remember that the difference between inexpensive shoes and expensive shoes is mostly weight, probably not a big deal at this point in your riding.

I like the look of the 105's and yeah weight is not a big deal to me at all right now I am going to my lbs on sunday to look at what they have there shoe and pedal wise and if they have any sales going on at the moment
