newbie here. i wanna know if you can stand on the cb mallets with plain skate shoes.
i like riding flats but sometimes clip in, i dont want to always have to put my bike shoes on
i have shimanos right now but i took them off and put some old flats on
The new ones have real pins instead of the plates so you could run extra long ones for your skate shoes and still be able to clip in. But rinseflow is right, it's not going to work all that great compared to a dedicated set of flats. It'd be fine for pedaling around the neighborhood, I just wouldn't take it on any long rides in the woods that way.
Agreed with clutch on not being "optimal" - but I've spent some time with the new mallets + 5.10 impact shoes. Not all bad. Probably OK for mild stuff, but would want true flats or to be clipped in on rougher descents.
