BOARDMAN ROAD COMP BIKE 2014
It came with horrible pedals with some nylon strap thing that I'm suppose to put my shoes into well lol I can not... So now I have removed the strap and now when I wish to use my bike I have to place my feet on top of the rubber foot holder thing... So now I'm guessing I need some pedals ..?
We'll if I do how about SHIMANO R540 SPD-SL

    What?! Chill man, I'm sure the OP (and you, once you climb off your mightily high horse), should realise I'm only having a playful jest. I believe it's called 'banter'. No mocking or belittling on my part...

    OP, good luck to you...enjoy your new bike. Don't stress about pedals for now, get used to riding & when you are confident enough then you could think about a pair of pedals. Doesn't matter which really, take a look at some at your local bike shop & then have fun getting used to them. Welcome to the club.

    Is this acceptable Ravey1981? *bows down in an 'I'm not worthy' manner....
