 Posted: 05/26/04 - 05:26 Post subject: Performance Forte Pro Pedals
Just bought a set of these last week. PH sent me a pair of Shimano shoes, and I looked around for a set of pedals to go with them. I found this set and they were even on sale. ($59.99-->$37.98) They installed easily in a matter of minutes.
Having never used clipless pedals before I was nervous this morning during my ride. I had practiced clipping in and out over the weekend. Had no problems at all during the ride.
Had a great ride this morning, felt as is I had more power, and its amazing how light the pedals are. Felt a little weird being attached to the bike, but now I wish I had gotten these pedals awhile ago.
If you are in the market for a set of clipless pedals, I recommend these.

I'm thinking about getting a set of those. Performance has a shop about 20 minutes away from me in Carrboro. Their store is pretty cool.

Are those single-sided? All my pedals are double-sided and I've been leary of switching over to only being able to clip in on one side.
