I actually love the “kids with cameras on klunkers vs bmx” beef in the history of mtb

this looks amazing. i don’t care enough about performance to get a road shoe and not be able to walk anywhere. and i like being able to use one shoe on all bikes. BUT sure, why not have more stability for my road rides?

Shimano also has a new SPD that allows you to just slam your foot down on the pedal instead of having to nose-in.

that is also covered in that escape article!

If you can read it. I have escaped from paying for their stuff.

Seems easy to accomplish for existing cleats with five minutes with a dremel for those inclined—looks like it just adds a little bevel on the pedal side of the front of the cleat

Haven’t SPD pontoon things been around for decades though?

That was my first thought. Just looks like a MTB show with minimal tread. Completely unsure what the "modular” pontoon adds. I thought at first that it was a gravel show that could take a 3 bolt cleat, but looks like no.

I had some of these years ago when I had SPDs on all my bikes.

Yeah, from the funny Duracchi single sided SPDs.

We used to sell them to people who insisted on MTB pedals cuz 2 sided but also insisted on road shoes because they only wanted to ride on the road.

Another new dangler.
