Bicycle pedals come in a range of different types depending on the type of bike you ride and the level of experience you have. One of the most recent innovations for riders is the clip-in pedal which also goes by another name that appears to be the exact opposite because they are also known as clipless pedals.

The reason to use bicycle pedal clips is to ensure the rider is able to generate the maximum amount of power possible with each rotation of the pedals without the fear of his/her feet sliding off the pedals. To use pedal clips the rider must also be wearing a pair of cycling shoes with cleats attached to the bottom. When mounting the bike and preparing to begin riding, the rider places the cleats into a sprung mechanism in the pedal. By pushing down firmly the cleat will clip into the pedal and you will hear a loud clunk. To remove the foot from the pedal the rider must twist their heel to one side which allows the cleat to escape.

There is another type of pedal clip that has been in use for somewhat longer than the clipless pedals and that is the toe clip with straps. These clips allow the foot to be placed into a basket-like clip with a semi-circular rubber or metal clip. While the clipless pedals allow the rider to apply pressure throughout the entire rotation of the pedalling action, toe-clips only allow the rider to exert pressure on the downward part of the pedalling action.
