I could simply move these used pedals over to the new bike, or buy another pair for the new bike. I'd be happy with both choices I think.
But this also feels like an opportunity to try something new/different? I like the look of Crank Bros Candy pedals. Anyone have experience on these and willing to share thoughts?
I see Trek now makes an SPD compatible clipless pedal line too. Anyone tried these?
I've been using Crank Brothers pedals for years. Started with Eggbeaters, which I still use on my fat bike. For gravel I've used Eggbeaters, Candy and Mallet. I like that the latter two have a bit of a platform. Since the weight of those two is similar, I've landed on the Mallet as my pedal of choice for gravel.
