I'm thinking about heading to my LBS today to try some on. Depending on the price, I may just buy there, but I at least need to get a fit. Aren't MTB shoes kinda frowned upon for road cycling? At least that's what I've heard, but that could be rubbish. Is there a road biking shoe that's stiff with just some light tread on it? I do still want performance...but maybe I'm asking for too much.
