Here is a picture of a clipped pedal:



You would need to buy special shoes that clip/lock onto the pedal, so you would need both clipped pedals, and shoes that are compatible with the pedals.

I am not sure if I am totally right about getting more out of your pedaling with clipped pedals or not. I know what they are, and have seen them before, but I am just assuming what the benefits are, and that can be a mistake.

I'm sure there is someone here that is more familiar with the benefits of using clipped pedals that could provide more, and better, info.

Take care.
