I only had coal for toys mate. Stop whining
Yup there sure are and I read your post, but I wanted a simple poll and results. Thanks for your feedback anywho.I'm not.
Your percieved view of my mood is incorrect.
There have been tons of clips vs flats threads on here... Despite me not actually caring what others choose to ride I do care why you might make that choice. (hence opening your thread)
Do you ride clipped in pedals on your Emtb? - EMTB Forums
might be of interest. dunno
*shrug*
I'd send you a lump of coal for xmas but you probably don't celebrate it!
Broke both Tibia and Fibula and dislocated the ankle. A plate and some screws and all is well.F$%^3 that looks painful!

Coal!, that's luxury your parents obviously spoilt you ?I only had coal for toys mate. Stop whining
I ride both at the same time. left foot is clipped in, right is on flat pedal. ?
Just jokes ?
Seriously tho, I just ride flats on the trails because I am very prone to dislocating my right knee. I think flats have benefits for road bikes and XC. But for the average Joe trail riding ect then flats can be safer. Can get the required grip on flats by dropping your heals and weighting the legs, driving through the bottom bracket.
I find it amusing watching videos of clipped in riders crashing, as the bike stays with them as they flip and tumble along the ground ?
Has anyone seen or tried Magped's?
(pedals with strong magnets and a steel plate on the cleat)
I'd like to know if they're either the best or the worst of both worlds.

Probably too niche
I would like to try these - I prefer flats for MTB, nothing against clips and I use them on the road, but just not for me off road. The only thing that appeals to me about clips is consistent foot placement, its not something I have an issue with on flats, but I would be intrigued to see how or if it affects my riding with having the foot in the same position each time.Has anyone seen or tried Magped's?

We had to play with salt and broken glass!
Got to admit I was plagiarising that exact skit.You know nothing!
I've been using the Nukeproof Horizon CL pedals for a couple of years. They don't really work how you're thinking; you're either clipped in and relying on the cleat or not clipped in and relying on the platform. I ran my cleats loose and didn't have any issues, even after the sole of one of my shoes broke and allowed the cleat to float around. I used 5-10 spd shoes.Anyone has tried clips with plataform/cage? Does the foot really made solid contact with the plataform?
My idea is to wear some softer shoes and set the spring softer as possible, relying the grip 50 to the clip 50 to the plataform
