I have read many posts regarding cycling and TKR (and posted a similar question on other thread) but have not seen one specially focused on the type pedal riders use after the surgery and full recovery. I have had both knees replaced several years ago but for a variety of reasons I am just now getting back on my road bike after 5 years of pursuing other activities. One ortho told me don't risk being clipped in while another one said it shouldn't be a problem if you have considerable float and quick release adjusted in the SPD petal (which I do). I used to always ride with clipped in but have been using flat pedals to get back being comfortable on the bike again but would like to go back to my SPD's soon if it makes sense. I am nearly 70 and currently ride 50-75 miles a week but look to take that up once I get back into bike shape. So for those of you that have had TKR what type pedals are you using and are there any adjustments needed to support your bionic knees?
