This time with a difference... I know all the options.... But what would you do....
I'm swapping one of my 2 roadies (Winter hack) for an MTB for various reasons.. Full story here
The bike will come with rat trap plastic pedals. I have 2 pairs of 3 bolt road shoes both Lakes and a spare pair of road SPD SL pedals from the winter hack
Now read the (complicated!) poll options and give me your views....
with regard to option 2 I'm a bit unsure as a lot of walking around MTB trail centres may kill the SPD SL cleats and options 4 and 5 I've only just paid £120 for the newer road shoes So Mrs V may not be too keen on another shoe purchase so soon.... and yes she will notice (However if a few quid comes my way for my imminent birthday who knows....)
so what would you do... I really am undecided..... leaning towards a platform/Spd pedal with new shoes so get 2 options of footwear but cash is the issue this side of 'you know what'
