I just need to find me a good pair of "walkable" bike shoes now to use on them. Currently Ive got road shoes with adapters. Works for a ride but a PIA to walk in.

The XTR pedals have completely banished my clipless phobia! Years ago I went full-on SPD-SL and had a slow motion fall on a High Street just after I'd had my then road bike serviced at a Specialized store! It was literally in front of dozens of people and many were rather amused.
Since then I've avoided clipless pedals as I've just been too scared to try them again.

I bought all my clipless gear last year but have only just got round to fitting it.
As for shoes, I got a pair of Fizik X5 Terra Suede Shoe 2018 model:
