Do you have the right or left foot clipless?
I have pedals clipless one side and flat the other
I should think I would be good for six cakes after 100 miles, on flats.On the other hand, cycle 100 miles clipped in an eat three cakes guilt-free. Cycle 100 miles on flat pedals and eat five cakes guilt-free. If you like cakes, flat pedals are the way to go. [Note that like almost all the other "facts" stated about clipless cycling, this one is completely anecdotal]
Removed the Clipless pedals on my fast bike today. Contrary to the views of many, I did not notice any advantages, only disadvantages. And because I didn't like them I was reluctant to ride the bike.
The new Shimano MX80s look quite nice on the bike - and will allow me to tear about in my wellies should the mood take me.
I will put the Clipless pedals and shoes on eBay.
On a fixie the ability to pull as well as push can make quite a big difference - especially going uphill - and of course it's a big help with back-pedal braking. And I've always remembered a post on an American forum re my PD-M340s - 'God loves a man who puts speedies on a fixie.' There's no way I'd go back to non-clipless for anything other than my pub bike.
I used to find straps uncomfortable on 3 hour + rides, I also find clueless far quicker to get my foot off the pedals.
I can understand how some people find the complicated though, all that twisting the foot very slightly to disengage.
Do you people still on toe clips use shoe plates?
...I also find clueless far quicker to get my foot off the pedals...
I do not think your screen can spell, I know sometimes my keyboard cannot.
Your post was much funnier before you edited your keyboard's mistake.
