Track pedal for powergrips
Hey, I was wondering if anyone had a decent suggestion for a track pedal that I can put Powergrips on. I currently have MKS Sylvan track pedals, but they don't have the screw holes on the back side that the Powergrips need. Something in that price range up to like $60 would be cool! I don't really want toeclips and clipless isn't really a good fit for me (not enough balls, shoes are inconvenient for utilitarian biking, and the shoes are ugly as hell!)
Thanks!
Thanks!

Why do you want track-specific pedals? There's better options for riding in street shoes.

And Powergrips because I've heard great things about them, as well as the reasons I wrote in the first post.

For powergrips on a trackish pedal, I'd go with the mks touring lites. Sure they're not a OMG REAL TRACK pedal, but they've got fairly narrow cages with teeth for decent foot retention.
