Re: FS: MKS Toe-Clippable Pedals
I have decided to keep and use them with Power Grips from: http://powergrips.com/ this will allow the use of Running shoes with thick soles which won't fit under steel toe clips.

Re: FS: MKS Toe-Clippable Pedals
The Power Grips have arrived and we are testing them on the MKS Platform Pedals at the moment.

My response: Quote:
Ok, In and out: Out first, by far the easiest pedal system I have used to release my foot, far easier than cleats, much safer than toeclips with staps, even easier than the half clip strapless. IN, the push off with the primary foot is ok, however it took me some time to get used to the light balance of the pedal, putting too much force into rotating the pedal, these balance far easier. Push in at a slight toe in angle, rotate the foot to straight and its all go. Power, far more power up hills than toeclips, I felt my feet were firmly wedged into the pedal/strap and gained more confidence. No hot spots with the shoes, unlike cleated shimanos. Found I was more toe down than usual. One legged drills, not recomended unless indoors, but possible. For the price, a worthwile investment for the summer, far cheaper than Shimano sandals.
