    Yes, they are quite death-defying...for lamers who lack

    Lamers Who Lack Coordination (LWLCs) are exactly the type

    to gravitate towards toeclips. They have this weird
    idea that toeclips are safer and easier to use than
    clipless pedals.

    I work in a bike store. The only riders I've seen buy
    toeclips there are LWLCs and Retro-Grouch Kooks (RGKs).
    For the most part, the RGKs are also LWLCs.

    It's also a matter of price, Boyd S. We aren't all fat,
    rich Americans destroying the world and living off the
    profits. 🙂

    Certain trails parts of the country ( U.S. ) have soils
    that contain substances that are extremely abrasive to
    clipless pedals (i.e. Bentonite) that can destroy a good
    pair of clipless pedals . I use toeclips there and when
    commuting to work . When commuting to work , the
    toeclips eliminite the need of carrying an extra pair of
    shoes . And , with some practice , are as easy to
    disengage as clipless . Been doing this for 25 years and
    the toeclips DON'T get clogged with snow in the winter .

    They don't disengage as easily as clipless when it is
    most important, ie. when you are crashing, especially
    over the handlebars. With clipless, any good violent jolt
    to the side, or even sort of to the side) is enough to
    disengage them. Yes, you could ride the toe-straps lose.
