Are these shoes good for a road bike and what peddles are best suited for a road bike

Yeah, but they are more made for the trail which I know they are great for, climbing up hills in when you get off the bike. On the road though, I feel like a road bike shoe would work better as there is no extra spiky tread that makes it harder to walk when you get off the bike on the road. They're quality though. As for pedals, look up Shimano clipless pedals and you can get a nice set for under 70 bucks. All Shimano pedals I've used are awesome.

After about 1year and 1300 miles they have been great. They are good to walk around when you are not on the bike I have shimano combo pedals spd on one side and regular on the other I think they are A530 or similar.

Hi Glenda, as long as your bike is a mountain bike and that you choose the right size, it should fit. These tires won't fit the road bikes.

You can go online and fine a sizing chart for road bikes. I'm not sure that any of these would be quite small enough for you, maybe the XS

Yes a 52cm bike would likely be a nice fit for you. You could always head to your local bike shop and have them measure you and advise you on the perfect size road bike for you.

SPD is one of the cleat designs for cycling shoes. As long as you shoes have SPD cleats you can use them.

Hello! Because they're SPD's on both sides, it's not too practical to use them without cycling shoes. A great alternative to check out is Shimano PD-M324 SPD Dual Platform Pedal - SPD on one side, flat on the other for use with sneakers, etc. I hope this helps!

These can be used for either.; Though as a Look cleat they are usually used on road bikes. For spinning classes the black non-rotating cleats are probably superior. But of course you have to know which pedals are on the spinning machine you intend to use. There are a dozen different pedals on the market and they are not compatible. For instance - Look markets the Delta and the Keo. These look roughly the same but the Keo is smaller and uses a different sized though similar looking cleat. There are Shimano SPuD pedals in both the mountain bike and a street pedal that looks similar but is uncompatible with the Look. There are several others as well. It is also necessary to use a shoe that is compatible with the specific pedal/cleat system you intend to use. But usually shoes are compatible with the two major mounting systems.

SPD cleats and pedals are usually compatible but I'm not familiar with the shoe. Sorry

They should fit, depending on shoe type. I wear a size 12 running shose (Brooks at the moment), and have no trouble with a good fit. As others have stated in comments, you probably want to remove the reflectors which, for some strange an unexplainable reason, are mounted on the bottom of the pedal. Besides that, though, these are the only pedals I buy and mount on my road bike anymore. (i keep an extra set, just in case).

Yes - Read a good review of these shoes at http://www.competitivecyclist.com/shimano-sh-r088-shoe-mens.

They can be used on any bike. I've hear do people using them on MTB and road.

Hi, my boyfriend is using this shoe for indoor cycling only. He doesn't have an outside road bike - so, I am not sure if it would work or not. Sorry, I can't really advise on the outside riding.

Any shoe compatible with the SPD cleat, really depends on how much you wish to spend. I STRONGLY recommend visiting a bike shop to try on shoes and find some that feel good! Otherwise, your bike rides will be short and uncomfortable. I personally LOVE these pedals, and I bought the Giro Trans Road shoes http://www.giro.com/us_en/trans-17797.html after trying on about 5 or 6 different pairs. I ride for fitness and fun (speed) and found that a road shoe with a very stiff sole and adjustable foot bed works best for me, but not everyone is the same. I ride a Trek 2.1 Triple with all Shimano 105 components. Any shoe compatible with the SPD cleat, really depends on how much you wish to spend.

My husband really likes his pedals; he has a size 12EEE foot. The studs on the pedals help keep your foot on them when they are wet. Be sure you get the right diameter shaft for your bike. I believe there were two sizes.

No idea, since I haven't taken any Soul cycle class. But you can call someone that works there (reoresentative/instructor) and ask what type of cleats are compatible with their bike pedals.

That is the intended purpose of the mtn bike pedal. Although you could use them on almost any type of bike, as long as you have SPD compatible shoes.
