While
clipless pedals and cleats are intimidating to many new cyclists, they
offer efficiency that cannot be gained any other way.
Before
using them, it's often worth it to invest a little bit of time into
becoming familiar with the way they work. This guide is not intended to
teach one how to use clipless pedals, but rather explain a good way of
learning how to use them.
Steps to riding with clipless pedals, shoes, and cleats:
01. Get clipless pedals and cycling shoes.
02. Mount the cleats to your cycling shoes securely.
03. Remember
that most pedals have a tension adjustment. If you look for that
adjustment and loosen it, it will likely make your experience much
easier.
04. Go find an open space to ride in. It helps if this has a nice road surface.
05.
Start off by straddling the bike and then clipping in whichever foot
you feel like you will be less comfortable clipping in, leaving the
other foot on the ground.
06. Use the foot that is clipped in to pull that pedal up so the crankarm is about 45 degrees above level.
07.
Push off with the foot on the ground while simultaneously pushing down
on the front pedal with the foot that is clipped in. This should give
you enough time to get clipped in with the second foot while giving you
enough speed to be able to coast for a minute and allow the other foot
to clip into a stationary pedal.
08. Enjoy your newfound efficiency and ride around for a few minutes.
09. Give yourself plenty of time (and space) to stop.
10. Remember
that when you stop, clip out of one pedal by twisting your ankle to the
side and slow yourself down until you feel comfortable putting that
foot on the ground.
11. Repeat from step five until you feel comfortable clipping in and out.
12. Enjoy your newfound speed on the bike.
