Sorry if I'm being redundant to some of the earlier threads, but thought maybe people can pitch in sales or deals they maybe aware of right now...
I'm looking for an inexpensive combination of clipless pedals and shoes. I have a road bike, but would use this shoes mainly for my commute, so figured mountain shoes are more comfortable if I end up walking a mile to the train station today after my bike went down due to some mechanical disagreements between us (is that true?).
Both the Diadora's and Exustars are on sale right now at Nashbar... Are they worth it? Should I still go for a road shoe? (some reviews said the diadora's have a very soft sole)
I'm planning to get the Nashbar ATB pedal again for it's versatility versus the road bike pedals (is that true?)
On the other side, should I just stick to toe clips (my shoe right now seems to be too large for them, so I'm thinking of getting a more streamlined walking shoe maybe?) for commuting?
