Can anyone tell me what tha adavatages of SPD are over the original Look
design? I've been out of serious recreational road cycling for nearly 10
years and I'm considering a comeback with my original circa '88 to '91
equipment which inclued mavic copies of the Look clip-in pedal design. Would
there be any advantage in upgrading pedals cleats and shoes? Is there any
improvment in the walk-ability of SPD compared to Look? I just remeber from
my golden days that walking home in shoes with big plates on the bottom
pulling a diabled road bike was just a bit more exercise thant I was
anticipating.
I've also noticed that most of the road shoes are now fastened with velcro
instead of laces. How well does the velcro hold up? Any risk of pull out? Is
any manfacuturer still making lace on road shoes??
