Road Bike Shoes

It seems that there are many differences of shoes from one brand to another, if the shoes are made for the road bike or mountain bike. Some MTB shoes seem more comfortable for everyday use or for walking. What shoes to get down mountain bike for a road bike?

No disadvantage. They have an advantage that you can walk. Thus, for normal driving, they are much better options. I have been cases where parts of the plant of some mountain bike shoes to interfere with road pedals, so check this before you buy, or be prepared to make some changes.

There are no disadvantages unless you are a very competative runner who needs the added benefit of winning.

Now, if you're a recreational rider road normal like me, who is to say 150-200 miles per week, the advantages of mountain bike shoes / cleats on road bikes that are the differance between a walk or slide, using your crampons, or be recessed and concrete.

Crank Bros. I wear. Frogs and Sidi mountain bike shoes. I rarely think to replace the studs because they are up off the concrete when I walk. Also, I can walk for judgments of the food, I can walk in the small town grocery stores, without busting my @ ss. In addition, when some are fumbleing to lock in the course of our urban walks after a stop light, I'm already in and start. Also, if I do, I can leave them in a hurry, not good for the tab but I can not replace them easier then busted a hip, tail bone or cassette when I fall.

Most everything I know wear shoes mountain bike - just make sure you get a good brand. I wear the Sidi are excellent.

No disadvantage. I mountain bike shoes (Lake MX-85's, strongly recommended because they are a perfect shoe for about $ 80) for my road bike and they work hard. They allow you to walk "normally" when he is not pedaling instead of walking heel you need to do on the shoes of the road. They look so cold ...

In addition to being a little heavier, there is no problem. For races of training, they might actually better if you have to walk for any reason. As a matter of flat or other mechanical methods.

Probably not much unless you're racing. In this case, you can not have the same "grip" and lose some effectiveness.
