[sicklines]

[mtbdirtbiker500]

im guessing u race pro rite i was gonna go untill i broke my custome haro extreme lol.. tell me were alot of people up there wering clippless pedals??

[Jwmbike14]

i hope you realize this isnt that sicklines guy...this is Bryn Atkinson he is a professional who races for GT the whole Atkinson family is pro...and yes most pros do run clipless...i race JR EX and i run clipless on 90% off courses...the only time you ever need flats are on courses with a lot of off-camber

[kumicho14]

what about Sam Hill. The world champion. :)

[Jwmbike14]

what about him?... for one he is using flat pedal shoes... i think the 510's or something... they are a hard soul designed to maximize power out of a flat pedal... he is more comfortable with flats... only time a clipless pedal is not beneficial is when there is a lot of off camber... otherwise in the air ,fast, cornering or even rock gardens being clipped in (parrt of the bike) you have more feel and control

[kumicho14]

Yea.... Who wouldn't run flat pedal shoes when riding platform pedals. Besides riding platform pedals are more fun because they allow me to do no footers and no footed can cans.... Do you ride at diablo freeride park?

[Jwmbike14]

yeah but you dont do no footers or can's while racing. no i have not but i race Jr ex in NMBS, and all over cali and most of the west coast. i personally dont do much freeriding, but i do dirt jump. and yes for freeriding or djing you do want flats not for racing though
