I have the touring pedals and like them fine with my Tevas but not for my skater shoes. I currently use Crank Brothers 50/50 pedals on one bike and inexpensive "bear trap" style cage pedals on my single speed. Actually the cheapies are the most grippy in wet weather but I have a few pins missing on the 50/50's. I think the GK's would be nicer modified with some pins as was explained in one of the reader issues. Regardless, big surface area equals comfort with no measurable loss in performance. Its interesting that when people think outside of the box ( the shoebox ) you find a what should be common sense, light bulb coming on.
