I use Eggbeater pedals from Crank Bros with pleasure and
without problems on ultra long rides, and therefore it
surpizes me to hear and read recommendations of pedals with
a wide contact area to the shoe sole supposedly giving
better foot comfort. Given you have stiff soles on your
shoes, why would you need a wide contact area to the pedal?
I consider it a myth that you get more comfort with pedals
like Shimano SPD-SL. Yet now I see that even Crank Bros are
beginning to follow fashion with their new models. You don't
need more than one stiff platfrom, do you? Can anyone
explain? Ivar of Denmark
