i love the setup i have

custom nuevos
mks clips sz S
kashimax sprint straps

something off a stock road bike. i have a set of allez pedals on my bike now. half plastic and half metal, plastic clips and nylon straps. lighter than the mks tracks, alloy clips, and leather straps, plus i don't feel bad if i clip the edges when turning to hard.

they can usually be had for free or very little money at your LBS, mine are off my own allez but i have a couple other pairs of brand new ones laying around i got from guys who installed clipless pedals when they bought their bikes.

mks gr-9s, with mks clips and campy nylon straps.


seriously the best nylon straps ever. if you're into it.


oh, i'm getting the new soma doubles sometime soon, too. so that might be my new fave.

i run mks tracks , plastic double clips (way more comfortable and supportive than metal clips IMO) then 2 straps with a piece of innertube as a double strap holder, and love that set up a lot

I'm switching from Sylvans, Fit-A-Straps, and MKS cages to the cheap Eggbeaters.

Cheapest Eggbeaters + Nashbar shoes = $62

whatever pedal + whatever clip (provided it is the right size) + whatever single strap

jim-bob 12-29-07 11:28 AM

MKS Touring Lites, decent steel/alu clips, and decent straps.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, for most people double straps are totally unnecessary.

Aaaaaaaaand I still want that crankset.

I still run the cheapest ****tiest Wellgo SPD knockoffs that are currently made and have absolutely no problems with them. The last pair I bought was 6 bucks brand new.

go clipless, get eggbeaters, you will be a better human being (and a faster rider)

Pick up a pair of touring shoes. They look normal enough and you can still walk around in them. You probably already know that though, so I'll just shut up now.

zelah 12-29-07 11:56 AM

touring shoes look like bobo mall Vans
