So I've narrowed it down to these 2 based on value for money and frame size. Opinions?

My LBS must love me, I only ever take them broken wheels and need them back ASAP!

Dropped off my power wheel and a novatec hub bed wheel I have which is 32 spoke, think the hub is 8/9/10 speed so a spare wheel.
 
Gents

Been given these and they fit perfectly, just need some second hand pedals to go with them for my San Remo road bike, but not sure if its a specific type I need (Novice here!!)

Any ideas?

They are shimano SPD-SL cleats.
Will work with any shimano SPD-SL pedals.

If you're buying new pedals, they come with cleats anyway, so you dont need to be restricted by the cleats you already have.
 
Started taking hayfever medication finally yesterday and I'm feeling so much better. Sadly the betterness hasn't translated to faster cycling :p

Though on the bright side I'm fairly sure I was high on antihistamines last night...

I'm on a budget so looking at second hand :(

Suppose the bay will be the best place to start, many thanks
 
I stopped using Endemondo because it was failing every time, decided to try it again today, and its working again for me

have we got an OcUK group still?
 
You're on a cyclocross bike! That's the exact thing it was designed for.

that trail was a bit too deep for my crank arms at points I could feel them pushing the grass along the sides right down into the mud and probably leaving a pedal imprint behind :D

How much clearance do you guys have with your road bikes?
the bottom of my pedal to the floor is 4inchs with the crank arm at 6 o'clock.
The big ring to the floor is 7.5 inches

My hybrid only has about 3/4 of an inch more clearance but it feels like loads more
 
Cycled to work this morning. As soon as I got there I got a phone call from the mrs who said she had a flat tyre and couldn't undo the nuts to change it. So had to cycle all the way home again, couldn't get the damned things off either so had to drive her to work!
