Rather have silver. But I read a review from someone around here who didn't really like the MT's that much.

It's just frustrating.
But even if your LBS doesn't have the PowerGrips on the shelf, won't they order them for you? Mine did.

I have the MT's myself. They were not the ones I was expecting when I ordered them with the bike, but I like them pretty well. The MT's have little projections from the top of the platform that grip the soles of my shoes. The AR-2's don't have them, so it's more than just a color difference.

Steveroot on the Dahon site forums has the AR-2's and built himself a little holder attached to his bike. He drops the shafts of the pedals into the tubes of his holder when he folds to board a train.
