whaaa... ?

Pretty sure most people ride platforms most of their cycling life before making the jump to clipless (or at least toeclips first perhaps).

I was trying to save money/effort and keep platforms on my MTB commuter but hated the platforms. My knees hated them too. The money on an extra set of clipless pedals was well worth it. I wouldn't ride any other way.

Anyway, I have two sets of these - Crank Bros Candy pedals

and one more of these (older model)


I have these as my main shoes

and a backup pair of older MTB shoes. Stiffer sole but not as comfortable for riding, or walking.
