A road cleat probably won't work for MTB riding. In general MTB shoes have 2 bolt pattern for cleats, Road have 3 bolt. Much of the team is using Crank Bros pedals. They're light and cheap. They don't last forever, but you can afford to buy a 2nd pair. MTB shoes also tend to have tread that allows the cleat to be recessed so you aren't walking on it. This makes walking in the shoes MUCH easier, and also quieter. I personally don't think I'll ever buy a road shoe again, but thats just my opinion, based on the fact that a MTB shoe, while it might not be as light or stiff as a road shoe (it can be), MTB cleat/pedals are more versatile. I also don't care much for super stiff soles, as a little flexibility makes it much easier to walk/run. And yes, sometimes you do that. But again, thats a personal thing. The one problem will be sizing. Rather sucks to pay $200 for a pair of shoes that you aren't sure fit right. As for pricing on this order, the lowest price is a little under $100, and goes up from there. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Daniele Littera Sent: Monday, December 20, 2010 3:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: R: [WVU Cycling] Shoe sponsor deal I could be interested, but I would like to buy (for now) just a pair of shoes for both mtb and road, which one do you suggest?

Is anyone out there interested in getting shoes? (todd, they have hard core winter stuff). I'm not going to post the pricing b/c as always, that's confidential but if you're interested...ask me and i'll share. look at Gaerne's 2011 catalog for the product line, there are limits on sizing for some models. Personally, i think it's a great deal. -FastestFatKid
