Bikes: '17 Access Old Turnpike Gravel bike, '14 Trek 1.1, '13 Cannondale CAAD 10, '98 CAD 2, R300

I understand that racers tightened those straps... back-in-the-day. But The guys like me that rode the streets and roads with clips and straps in the 60's didn't.

I actually like the old toe cages and I use them on my vintage bikes. But I still don't tighten the straps. What would be the point? Any extra efficiently was always debatable... and now they are just on vintage bikes anyway.
