running
SPDs on my roadie, SS, and mtb for a number of years I am looking for
some
advice on which ones to get. I have a pair of Shimano shoes that I
scored a
while ago from ebay and they have a couple of sets of Look cleats that
came
with them (one red set, one black). Initially I thought that I would
just
go with the Look pedals so that I had a couple of spare sets of cleats
but
now I am approaching it with an open mind.i came into road biking from a few years of mountain biking in which i
started out with shimano spd's. i never cared for them much, just felt
they were generally a bit fidly to get into and riding trails in the wet
they'd incessantly clog.
well, ive had my SPDs for a couple of weeks now. work like a charm 😉
i've gone for the hippy inspired 'stomp' clipin method =)
i've got VP-133 MTB pedals on my roadie. big chunky numbers.
sure you want road pedals, i still wanted to wear my boots too. my
priorities were, not expensive, but not cheaparse, and hold up a fat
barstard like me 😉 the VP133s cost me 100$, shoes were run[1] out
stock, at 170$, diadora MTB something ... no idea of the model#
cheers,
kim
