You can't take your feet off the pedals and put them back on without hurting yourself? I've seen way more scraped shin from mountain bikers than I have strapless fixed gears. Seriously how often do feet come off pedals accidentally anyways? I'll go ahead and take the straps off my Pompino and let you know how it goes. I honestly didn't like them much anyways.
Do you guys also worry about contracting ebola?
