Re: [RBW] Re: Adapters to make SPD pedals into clip and strap pedals?

2021-06-04 Thread Patrick Moore
Thanks. I tried those, and was looking for one taking clips. As things
stand, my search has eliminated this option and I am now considering either
SPD shoes designed for more walking, or the MKS Rinko pedal system.

 These are my thoughts:

 I really did not like the Step-in B pedals.  I am a Time ATAC lover and
 that fact that the MKS used the same cleats was a huge plus.  However, I
 found the break-in period for the Step-in B pedals was incredibly long.  I
 messed with the spring tension.  I was using well broken in cleats.  But it
 took a long, long time before the the clip-in was smooth.  At the
 beginning, I had to jam my foot down, forward, backward, every which way to
 engage the cleat.   Once that issue resolved itself over ~20 rides, they
 were better.  But my goal was to swap between mtb'y pedals and flat
 pedals.  On the trail, the engagement was no where near as nice as my Time
 ATAC.  So, I just gave up and sold the setup.

 That said, if your goal is to ride roads and occasionally swap pedals,
 its fine.  Maybe not perfect, but fine.   One thing you can do is find the
 discontinued Non-Ezy version of the MKS Step-in B pedals for cheap on eBay
 and try them out.  Actually, I may have a set missing the dust cap if you
 are interested (I bought them for parts).

 I wish they had partnered with Time and made the basic ATAC pedal with
 the MKS Ezy Superior Axle.  I would have kept that setup forever.

Hi Patrick,
Here's another option but they don't take 
straps. 
https://www.adventurecycling.org/cyclosource-store/equipment/sp/problem-solvers-decksters-clipless-pedal--adaptor/

They are kind of heavy but work fine for occasional riding around. I've got 
two pairs and would be happy to sell you a pair for not too much if you're 
interested.

Thanks, Ginz; not the SPD but still a general issue to consider. Really,
after far too much fretting, I think the best solution is simply to find a
more comfortable and conservative-looking pair of SPD shoes that don't hurt
my feet after an hour of standing (liturgies regularly last 2 hours, and
they can go much longer than that! It would probably have to be a lace up
since I have narrow heels and a bunion on my right foot, thus need a wide
toe box but a sufficiently narrow heel.

Someone suggested the Giro Rumble which is designed to be more flexible
than most cycling shoes for comfortable walking. It's well priced, too. My
only doubt is the look: it's not horrible, but I'd like to find a
"walk-oriented" spd shoe that looks like my 5-10 Freerider (5-10 does not
seem to offer anything like the Freerider for SPDs).

Thoughts welcome.

Thanks; I've thought of these. Questions: Does the system materially

Actually, ~$275 for MKS SPDs and Urbans and shipping isn't too bad, but
