Are the cleats recessed in the shoe? So when out of the pedals your walking flat?

Yes they are recessed and walking in them is no problem at all. When walking on gravel you can kinda feel the cleat touching but walking on side walks feels just like tennis shoes

"Normal shoes" as in street shoes/tennis shoes/running shoes etc? No, not really a good idea, and I personally would really have to say "No." these are "clip in" style pedals that are for bike shoes with road cleats (specifically SPD-SL road cleats)... if you want to ride with "normal shoes" you really should use a pedal with toe clips such as the Avenir Ultralight Pedals with Toe Clips and Straps Avenir Ultralight Pedals with Toe Clips and Straps, Black/Silver, 9/16 Inch Axle

Not that I'm aware of. I just wear running shoes. Not sure why you'd want cleats. Pedals have very satisfactory show saddle for secure footing. I'm not a cyclist outside, but very acceotable spinning bije

Hello, the pedals that come with the bike are not "clipless" they have straps. You can strap into these pedals, but you cannot "clip" into them with an SPD cleated shoe.

It depends in your pedals. The cleats that come with these shoes are the standard 2 bolt SPD cleats. Many trainers use this type.

No, these are just to protect the cleats from when you walk in them. You must remove them prior to riding.

the cleats should bolt right to the shoe the female portion is already in the shoe mount the front screw leaving it loose then then the back bolts. If you can't do it take them to your LBS & they will help you out.

Hi Katie yes it is but to be sure because of the different styles and makers of these you want to be sure. if the cleats that came with your shoes look the same as these in the picture you'll be fine. hope that helps

The cleats that come with the pedals are larger than the spd cleats but your shoes should have the 3 screwholes in the shape of a triangle to fit them.Check here for picture http://www.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/bike-pedals.html#CliplessPedalOptions

Soon after posting my previous, my right foot came out during exercise. Oh well, pride cometh before a fall. I have an old pair of beach sandels with double velcro closures. I attached them to the pedals with the pedal velcro across the top of the sole. Works great.

No. Please note that "clipless" pedals are the pedals in which you clip into the pedal with a cleat on the bottom of your shoe. I know, it sounds weird and wrong, but that's the term for it.

Yes. They come with both the black "immovable" cleats and the red, 6 degree "floating" cleats.

I guess it would come down to the cleat position. You can move the cleat around to get a more comfortable position when you pedal, you have more adjust-ability with the float in the cleat than in the pedal.

SPD is one of the cleat designs for cycling shoes. As long as you shoes have SPD cleats you can use them.

The inner edge of the pedals are 6 inches apart. It's a very comfortable stance as if walking. Hope this helps!

In the past, I have found that all the spd pedals are compatible. I didn't change the cleats when I started using this pedal. They were a little tight at first but I backed off on the adjuster and they work fine. This one's the best spd road pedal I have tried.
