  1. Hi,
    Can anyone recommend cycling shoes (preferably "trainer" style
    touring ones, that are OK for walking in) that work well with
    traditional toeclips?

    They all seem to be "spd-compatible" these days with pop-out sections
    in the sole. My only experience to date with this style (A Cannondale
    of some sort) was disastrous, as the pop-out section started leaking
    almost immediately, rendering them useless in puddly weather...

    Hi-Tec used to make some great "canvas" MTB boots, they seem to be
    long gone :-(

    Seems there's a shedload of great cycling products been driven off the
    market in the last few years...

    Cheers,
    W.

    On sale at 21 quid in my local 'sports' shop. Choice of colours.

    Thanks for that- I was able to take advantage of the same offer and
    they seem fine... though the ridges on the sole do make sliding into
    the toeclip a bit tricky. TerryJ's advice on smooth soled shoes is
    ringing in my ears...

    Cheers,

    I suggest not tightening the strap down too much. Otherwise, they WILL
    lock in.
