Step 12 Pedals and Clips

There are plenty of options with pedals -you can choose clip-ons with special shoes, cages, flat pedals, or clips to slip shoes in (shown here). Make sure you look for the 'R' and 'L' (Right and Left) on the end of the pedal so that you don't strip the threads when placing them on the crank arms. Put a bit of grease on the threads and tighten the pedals.

I chose metal clips with a leather strap for the long-lasting materials. Put them on the pedals and screw them in. So that the small screws don't come loose, after tightening the cages, put a bit of rubber cement or superglue around the edges of the screw heads.
