Hi, newbie to clipless here. After riding MTB with takkies for the past 3 years I finally upgraded to clipless. Shimano SPD. Got the hang of clipping in and out real fast and have done about 60km since installing them 2 days ago (no falls yet My shoes fit real nice and I find pedalling to be more smooth… overall a pleasant experience, but I noticed that my legs get tired a bit sooner now (I noticed especially on tthe front just below the knee - never experienced fatigue (burning sensation) in that region before - as well as overall tiredness sooner than usual) especially with climbing. I know that more muscle groups gets a workout now (e.g. hamstrings). Could this be the reason for the change? I ride 4 times a week, alltogether about 80km so I am not too unfit. If so I guess it will get better as those “unused” muscles’ adapts to riding clipless? Hope it’s not a stupid question! Thanks in advance!
