Gear Alert: Pocket Pedals

Why: Because pedalling without cleats on everyday shoes is a PITA

Just slip the Pocket Pedals over your bike’s pedals and anyone can conveniently use y our bike without the need to wear cleats and bike shoes. It’s just a handy invention.

There have been many similar inventions like this over the last 10 years or so but Pocket Pedals are a tad different. Here’s why

  1. Works with Shimano SPD and SPD-SL
  2. you can rest  your foot on either side of the pedal
  3. Large platform area
  4. Easy on, easy off. No screws or bolts.
  5. A bargain at €30/£25

They’re so good they have sold out until later in MAa 2022.

Buy direct or from Stockists (including Sigma Sports in the UK, my LBS!)

My favourite kit and nutrition

  • Maurten — the race nutrition trusted by elite athletes. Gels and drink mix engineered to be easy on the stomach.
  • Garmin 90-degree charging adapter — the small adapter that keeps your charging cable tidy at the stem. Essential for race day.
  • Garmin charging puck — the fastest and most reliable way to top up your Garmin before a session.
  • Ravemen FR300 — front light that mounts directly under your Garmin or Wahoo head unit. Keeps your bars clean and your beam pointed where it matters.
  • Garmin Varia RTL515 — radar rear light that alerts you to vehicles approaching from behind. Pairs with your Edge or Garmin watch.
  • Stryd — the footpod that brings running power to your Garmin. The single most useful running upgrade I have made.
  • Favero Assioma Pro RS2 — the power meter pedals most serious cyclists end up choosing. Accurate, easy to move between bikes.
