Well, my new fixed gear bike is on the way

Well, my new fixed gear bike is on the way
(thanks Sheldon). As this is my first fixed
gear, I've got more than a couple of questions.
The main one is, what do people recommend
for pedals? I'm using Look/Campy style
pedals on my road bike. I understand that
double sided pedals may be a better choice
on a fixed gear--due to the need to get
quickly clipped in to a bike with no
freewheel. I've got a pair of Speedplay X-1's
that I am ok with; seems like the extra float
might help while I get used to and adjust
the new bike. Any suggestions?


Cheers

Have a look in the archives of fixed.org.au - extensively discussed.
Time MTB, eggbeaters or SPDs with recessed cleats on MTB shoes - nice
to be able to walk up those tougher hills?
