Greetings to all,
I looking for good advice on pedals, I want quick and easy access losing the minimum amount of pedal efficiency. I used the bike shoes last year but with this type of racing I have to bring my trail runners with me as I do not return to same transition each time, so I had been mounting the trail runners on bottle holders mounted behind the saddle. These shoe changes are too time consuming and I also lose the spot to mount my saddle bag with puncture repair kit (which is often needed).
I have started using basket type this year but they are difficult to get into quickly due to my wide feet and the trail runners are not as smooth on the soles as normal runners are. I have been looking at "Power Straps" but they are getting very bad reviews on forums.
The cycling on these races is 90% on asphalt roads, 5% rough roads and 5% running with bike on shoulder.
Id really appreciate any advice on this.
Thanks.
