well i’m still looking for pedals. i went to my local bike shop (lbs) today and tried on some shoes and decided on the sidi dominator 4 mega. they felt like i was wearing slippers, really comfortable. i then started looking at pedals and thought i knew what i wanted. instead i was a bit more confused, but i know what i want to test now. i’m going to test out the speedplay frogs, shimano pd-m646, and the crank bros. egg beaters. i used to ride the shimano pedals but when i bought them i used them as a generic platform because i was planning on buying some shoes. anyhow, needless to say these pedals weren’t meant to be generic platform pedals and they broke after a few months. if i remember right they have some plastic in their construction, which was where they broke down. if that is the case i’ll be removing these from consideration pretty quickly.


like i said last week, the important factors for me a the amount of float, support of the platform, and durability of the construction. amy thinks that i may be researching this too much, in some ways i agree, but i just hate to spend good money on something that is going to break in a few months. we’ll see how they perform later in the week, after i test a few. i’ll keep you updated.
