I see a couple people mentioning MKS Sylvans...I've had mine going on 4 months, they do the job but I'm curious about trying clipless. I rock a front brake, and I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that there's a lot of vulnerability with clips. As mentioned, the position between 9 and 3 oclock is somewhat awkward but I'm working on "skidding switch" with pulling back my left foot. I've noticed over the few months that the cages have gotten "baggier", or weaker, kind of like after you bend a paperclip back and forth enough times. Scraping them on the ground drives me nuts, but for the hundreds of times that's happened (or so it seems), they're still shinier than you could imagine. So I guess what I'm saying is that I support the MKS Sylvan setup, but I'm curious if I can improve my safety with better stopping ability and Time ATACs.
